As cheias no sul de Portugal em diferentes tipos de bacias hidrográficas

Abstract: Resumo -No século XX, as cheias foram o desastre natural mais mortífero em Portugal, seguidas pelos sismos: por cada morte devida aos sismos morreram sete pessoas devido às cheias.O tipo de cheias conhecidas como «cheias progressivas» afectam principalmente as grandes bacias hidrográficas, como a do rio Tejo, provocando a inundação de uma ampla área. Este tipo de cheias é causado por períodos de chuva abundante relacionada com a circulação zonal de oeste que se mantém durante semanas. O sistema de barragens da… Show more

“…The second top event in the IP ranking corresponds to 5 November 1997, a more localized event ( A = 32.9% of the domain) and characterized by an extended band of precipitation with a SW‐NE orientation (Figure (b)). However, it was more intense ( M = 4.5) than the top rank event and produced major socioeconomic impacts with 11 deaths in Portugal and 21 in Spain (Ramos and Reis, ). According to Lorente et al (), this event was due to a cut‐off‐low that deepened quickly and extended to lower levels just before leaving the Atlantic Ocean.…”

“…In addition, between 6-8 November 1982, there occurred one of the most catastrophic flash-flood events in the Eastern Pyrenees affecting Andorra and also Southern France and Eastern Spain with rainfall accumulations exceeding 400 mm in 24 h with 44 fatalities and widespread damage [27]. Finally, on 5 November 1997, extreme precipitation with values higher than 150 mm in 24 h in Southern Portugal and Extremadura province in Spain produced major flash flood events, causing major socio-economic impact with 11 deaths in Portugal and 21 in Spain [20].…”

“…The rivers' regimes are directly related to the annual and monthly rainfall variability that characterizes a Mediterranean climate [20]. Taking the example of the Tagus basin, after the dams construction, the river flow peaks reduced and also the frequency of floods [20].…”

“…Estes empreendimentos hidroelétricos deveriam ter um impacto positivo na regularização dos caudais mais elevados e, consequentemente, na frequência e magnitude das cheias. No entanto, verifi ca-se, por vezes, uma descoordenação e pouco eficiente gestão dos caudais por parte das autoridades responsáveis, como aconteceu, por exemplo, nos rios Tejo (1978 e 1979) e Mondego (2000/2001 e 2016), onde as descargas contínuas das barragens provocaram cheias e inundações em várias regiões do centro do país, colocando em causa a infalibilidade técnica destas obras hidráulicas (RAMOS e REIS, 2001;CUNHA, 2002;PAIVA, 2005/06;ORDEM DOS ENGENHEIROS, 2016).
