Sumario:It is essential to plan the landscape-modifying activities promoted by society,organizing sustainable interventions within the limits and potential of theenvironment. Therefore, it is of great relevance to understanding the functional and evolutionary behavior of the landscapes, as it allows visualizing tendential scenarios, corroborating with the environmentally sustainable planning and management. The study area is a fluvial landscape known locally as “Tabuleiro do Embaubal”, in a section of the lower Xingu River that constitutes a drowned mouth, and has its uses and occupations correlated with the occupational advances of the Amazonian forest, permeating the initiatives of the Company of Jesus of Jesuit priests and the recent Growth Acceleration Program (PAC) of the Brazilian Federal Government. The production of energy through hydroelectric plants appears as the new challenge to understand the landscape of the lower Xingu River, which with the installation of the Belo Monte Power Plant in the archipelago will modify the flow of energy and matter of the river landscape, with consequent changes In regional and local geoecological dynamics. The research analyzed the geoecology of the “Tabuleiro do Embaubal” with the intention of subsidizing the planning and environmental management of Amazonian river landscapes. The construction, analysis, and discussion of the results were guided by the geostematic methodology, disseminated in Brazil by Tricart (1977), Souza (1981, 1998, 2000), Silva (1998), Ross (2006), Rodriguez, Silva and Cavalcanti (2013) and Rodriguez and Silva (2013). The analyses were constructed at a regional and typological level because they had an integrative and holistic methodology of the landscape components, with horizontal and vertical structure analysis, functioning, geoecological evolution, ecodynamics and environmental vulnerability, which allowed to understand the geoecological tendency of the “Tabuleiro do Embaubal” and to support proposals for the management plan of the Vitoria de Souzel Sustainable Development Reserve (RDS) and the Tabuleiro do Embaubal Wildlife Refuge (RVS).
