Canal Tamengo e sua Importância Histórica na região de Fronteira Brasil/Bolívia

Abstract

This work aims to highlight the significant connection between the use of nautical charts and environmental preservation, with a particular focus on hydrographic monitoring of the Tamengo Channel. The study seeks to examine the hydrological history of the Corumbá region and its borders with Bolivia, analyzing variations in watercourse, depth, and natural dynamics that shift throughout events such as droughts, floods, fires, the disappearance of riparian forests, silting, and course deviation, among other socio-environmental issues. The research also aims to present results and reflections on the analyses conducted, addressing navigation system, orientation, depth, and shoreline concerns, as well as examining local ecological niches. The theoretical foundation will be contextualized to promote the development and appreciation of the region, providing an integrated perspective on the environment, hydrography, conservation, and sustainability. In addition to describing, interpreting, and discussing the results, the study seeks to establish associations that contribute to the preservation and balance of the areas in question, providing an informative legacy for future generations, not only within the local context but also across Latin America. This work will be widely disseminated to generate positive impacts for the Graduate Program, offering a relevant resource for research and an informative repository that can support the preservation and regional development initiatives.
