Abstract

With the objective of enhancing nature conservation of Conservation Units, this paper presents a proposal for expansion of the Angico-do-Cerrado Ecological Station, located in the municipality of Tuneiras do Oeste, state of Paraná. The proposal was based on geoecological criteria (influence of matrix, geoecological aspects and integrated management) and resulted in two models: one considered ideal and one intermediate between the ideal model and the current configuration of the Ecological Station.The models presented seek to highlight the need to contemplate essential elements to nature conservation, such as the inclusion of springs and streams within the Station boundaries, as well as the rounded shape, thus reducing edge effects and potentializing water and soil conservation.
