Estudos relacionados a precipitação na bacia do alto teles pires no ecótomo Cerrado-Amazônia no estado de Mato Grosso

Abstract

The environmental transformations resulting from anthropic actions and climate change are critical, and periods of rain and drought assume calamitous proportions. In this regard, the understanding of precipitation patterns in a given region is paramount, taking into account that its interannual and seasonal patterns directly affect agriculture and several other sectors of the economy, since any unexpected climatic event can affect socioeconomic organizations as well as alter the natural physical environment. The aiming of this work is to assess the rainfall patterns in agriculture important regions of the state of Mato Grosso and to perform a comparison of rainfall data estimated by Satellite and weather station for the state. In order to achieve this goal, the work consists of two chapters, where the first one will address the classification of rainfall in the Teles Pires River Basin whilst the second one intended to address rainfall anomaly indexes and assess precipitation data estimated by satellite and meteorological station in municipalities of Mato Grosso. In this work it was verified that the Rainfall Anomaly Index (IAC) can be used as a tool for climatic monitoring in the Teles Pires river basin. It has also been shown that the use of data from the CHIRPS satellite can be a useful tool for regions where the historical data scarce, with poor quality or nonexistent.
