Resumo:
This article is the result of research conducted in the municipality of Prata, State of
Paraíba. This research aimed to analyze the Fluvial Geomorphology of The Acauã
Stream and anthropic action in the stretch that runs through the municipality of Prata-
PB. Through bibliographic research, the data collected in a field study with the capture
of images, it was sought to understand the natural fluvial dynamics and how anthropic
action directly influences the stream. From this study, it is possible to understand the
current situation of The Acauã Stream, both natural factors and anthropic action. In
some places in the stretch of the Stream, processes studied by river geomorphology
are present, such as the influence of water in the transformation of the landscape. The
deforestation of riparian forest, construction of dams, and use of the stream for animal
husbandry and agriculture are the main anthropic processes that alter the dynamics in
the river channel. Practices that are geared towards the conservation of riparian forest
in the remaining stretches need to come into force, such as increased inspection by
government agencies.
