Descripción
The Paraná State ecological regions map for forest plantation identifies similar ecological areas relied over climate,soil and vegetation covering 199.314 km² in Southern Brazil. This procedure presents other utilities for natural ecosystems conservation, landuse planning including agrossilvopastoril production managing. Success in reforestation and ecosystem recovery requires species that haveadjusted geographic origins to the new environments. The Paraná State presents climatic conditions going from subtropical over range andplateau highlands until humid tropical through the coastal zone and tropical wet and dry climate in the northern Paraná River basin. All throughhis surface, diverse landscapes are present: subtropical araucaria pine forests, subtropical humid prairies, tropical Atlantic mountain andcoastal plain forests, some savannas, wet meadows, mangroves and Atlantic coast restingas (on sandy, acidic, and nutrient-poor soils,characterized by medium sized trees and grass). Nowadays large amounts of this territory are occupied with soya, corn, wheat, sugar cane,coffee farms, pastures, tree plantations and forest fragments. In this context, we try to define units of similar climate in the Paraná Stateemploying statistical analysis and geographic information systems.
