On October 7, IBGE will release publication of the Brazilian System of Relief Classification, of the Technical Expeditions series: Field guide of the I Relief Classification Meeting - Plateaus in the state of Paraná


The publication presents the field road map. descriptions and discussions that took place during the first Relief Classification Meeting (I RCR), which focused on the reliefs of the plateaus in the stte of Paraná. The event occurred in March 2023 in the 3rd Workshop on the Brazilian system of Relief Classification (SBCR), held in Curitiba, at the Federal University of Paraná.

For the first time in the Brazilian Geomorphology, relief experts gathered to accomplish a previously produced road map that provided didactic and challenging situations for the interpretation and classification of the forms of relief observed.

The I RCR reflected on the diversity of the forms of relief found in plateaus, showing that this class of relief should be especially considered in the treatment of the lower taxons of the SBCR. The diversity of plateaus noticed in the state of Paraná anticipates that of the national territory, which consists nearly 40% of plateaus.

New guides will be produced along future meetings in the workshops on the SBCR or independently, according to the requirements of advances and propositions of the National Executive Committee of the SBCR.
