In order to identify the potential geomorphosites of the municipality of Ubajara - CE, these were identified from a preliminary evaluation, considering the parameters of rarity, representativeness, cultural, aesthetic and ecological relevance, scientific knowledge, as well as the characterization of physical aspects and through field work based on the methodology of Santos et al., (2020).
