- Abstract
The objective of this work was to model ecological corridors with the purpose of connecting two conservation units, Jamari National Forest and Bom Futuro National Forest, Rondônia. TerraClass/INPE vector land vector files were used in 2004 and 2014, later converted to the raster format, where each pixel received a friction value corresponding to each class of land use. The two cumulative cost matrices for each evaluated year were submitted to the Corridor Analysis tool to model the potential area for corridor formation. Based on the results of this research, it was observed that the landscape around these two FLONES was quite anthropized during the study period, causing the narrowing of the ecological corridors identified in 2004 and 2014, as well as the relocation of the corridor from the southern part of FLONAS in 2004 to the northern part of the FLONAS in 2014. This indicates that the landscape has changed dramatically to the point of substantially altering the direction and locations of ecological corridors in 10 years.
