To understand the current landscape configuration it is essential to analyze the geomorphological features and processes that were responsible for its evolution. Thus, the integrated analysis of geomorphological and stratigraphic aspects constitute an important line of investigation of the evolutionary dynamics of the Quaternary, especially the old processes that were responsible for the dynamics of landscape evolution. The main objectives of this study were to delimit the river terraces of the Canapi watershed, correlate them with the pattern of (dis)connectivity and characterize the river channel seeking to understand the behavior of the main watercourse from the conception of river connectivity in a semiarid environment. From the integration of literature review, mapping of geomorphological units, land use and landscape disconnections, it was possible to characterize these river deposits, and thus contribute to studies on environmental and fluvial dynamics, with this, assisting in the proper occupation and management of natural resources. In general, it was found that the Canapi watershed has a large (dis)connectivity, especially in the main channel, contemplating the three spheres: longitudinal, vertical and lateral.
