Abstract

With assistance in diverse fields of Science such as agronomy, architecture and diferent engineerings, man has sought the development of his demands bound to natural environment and space, and, for some authors, from the relief point of view, being named as a new geomorphological agent. Through this, the human being has been severely modifying the relief in rural áreas to boost some agricultural issues, like livestock. Both uses demand wide areas and usage of agricultural techniques for its rise, and through a intensive soil use, regardless the adoption of conservation techniques, have led into worrying erosions. In order to assist studies that target to comprehend development mechanisms of linear erosive shapes, amid anthropomorphic agents acting, this study goal is to point out evolution trends of linear erosive shapes located in the cuestiform sector of Analândia (SP). For such matters, it will be traced methodological guidelines supported on principles that rule the General Systems Theory, aiming to gather correlations and associations that emerge a global approach from the scientific object. Thus, the gathering data obtained by experimental field studies, laboratory analysis as well as cartographic products formulation in cabinets, it will inquire and map evolution trends from erosive shapes all along the rural environment to be studied.
