Synopsis

Geodiversity and soil education, as well as research and contemporary challenges related to watersheds, make up the core of this work, which brings back to the fore the theoretical discussions in Physical Geography, which seem to be left aside in recent years. The greatness of the contribution also lies in the option for the object of study, which leads us to contribute to the authors' living space, in this case the state of Piauí. This becomes the stronghold of the researchers' coveted look, taking it as a projection of the analyses, always supported by scientific rigor, in its theoretical and methodological foundations.
