Anteprojeto de infraestrutura verde e reconfiguração paisagística da área dos lagos do zoológico no Campus da Universidade de Caxias do Sul -UCS

Abstract

The loss of ecological benefits caused by the growth of cities can be mitigated by the use of alternative infrastructure technologies and the reintroduction of native vegetation into urbanized areas. In this context, this work seeks to carry out a preliminary project of landscape reconfiguration contemplating the reinsertion of native plant species and the implantation of typologies of green infrastructure, both with the function of mitigating the impact of urbanization and helping the environmental balance and landscape harmonization of the space. The area defined for the project is located on the campus of the University of Caxias do Sul (UCS), limited to lakes and their environments. The procedures adopted involved documentary, legal and normative analysis, situational survey of the study area, listing existing plant species in space and problems in existing infrastructure, design of suggestive sketches with design alternatives, submission for evaluation of University managers and, finally, project of landscape restructuring and green infrastructure for the study area.
