The objective was to map spatially and temporally the degradation of the lands of the Sucuru River basin in the region of Cariri Paraibano. The SPRING 5.2.7 program was used for the digital processing of orbital images and the photointerpretative keys for evaluation of levels of degradation, field visits, consultations with literature and public agencies. There was a regeneration of the areas that previously were in the levels of degradation very serious and moderate severe, due to factors such as the drought that is hindering the agricultural exploration, as well as the reduction of the animal exploitation and of the arboreal extractivism. The banks of the water bodies of the basin, for the most part, are at the level of severe degradation, resulting from the removal of this vegetation due to the exploitation of these areas for the most varied uses. The degradation processes, together with the incorrect use of the lands of the studied basin had as main consequence, the rural exodus, requiring the intervention of the public power so that the local communities can develop sustainable activities, considering social, economic and environmental aspects.

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
