The study analyzed the behavior of sediment transport in the Beach Zone located between Praia do Preá and Jericoacoara in the Jericoacoara National Park - PARNA.
The physical limitations of in situ measurements of sediment transport on beaches, mainly longitudinal, restrict studies in these environments to the subaerial part. Sediment trap methods were chosen, with 04 collection and measurement campaigns being carried out for reconnaissance, carried out between July 2019 and February 2022, where eleven trap points were delimited, comprising the beach sectors and the wind corridors of transportation and feeding of Duna Por do Sol (DPS). Three sediment traps were used for each collection point, spaced 5.00 meters apart.
With the results obtained, an eolic-sedimentary zoning was carried out, presenting the processes and effects of the local wind dynamics (erosion and sedimentation), understanding how the morphological dynamics of the area occurs and correlating it with possible scenarios, essential elements for the planning that aimed at mitigating impacts and requalification of the area in the medium and long term, resulting in a project that will try to stop the sediment balance deficit in the DPS, contributing to its recovery in volume and area, with the installation of sets of Wind Current Guide Structures (EGCE).
