Projeto de restauração florestal com manejo ecológico integrado no Parque Estadual Fritz Plaumann

Abstract

The ecological restoration of ecosystems is a practice with the purpose of restoring degraded environments to a condition as close as possible to the original environment, considering their biological diversity and ecosystem functions. Currently, forest restoration techniques based on the nucleation paradigm have gained ground, allowing the existence of stochastic elements and trajectories throughout the process of ecological succession. The present work presents the technical project elaborated for the implementation of a forest restoration project with integrated ecological management, in an area of 4 ha in the Fritz Plaumann State Park, in the municipality of Concórdia-SC. Among the objectives of the project are the control of the exotic invasive species Hovenia dulcis and Hedychium coronarium, the planting of seedlings native to the Deciduous Seasonal Forest in western Santa Catarina and the implementation of an eco-pedagogical trail for the development of activities aimed at Environmental Education for visitors from the park. An integrated ecological management is proposed, seeking to create synergy between the different elements that make up the ecological restoration process, with the use of local resources, forest management synchronized with phenological and astronomical calendars and socio-environmental engagement of the community, using a permacultural approach and agroecology for that.
