Validação da avaliação pelo GRACE do acúmulo de água no subsolo da bacia amazônica com base em dados de linígrafos

Abstract: The Amazon basin is a region of constant scientific interest due to its environmental importance and its biodiversity and climate on a global scale. The seasonal variations in water volume are one of the examples of topics studied nowadays. In general, the variations in river levels depend primarily on the climate and physics characteristics of the corresponding basins. The main factor which influences the water level in the Amazon Basin is the intensive rainfall over this region as a consequence of the humidi… Show more

“…Almeida et al (2012), based on the comparison of GRACE data and local measurements of a river flow, study the water mass distribution of the Amazon Basin and comment that the correlation could be related to the geology of the region, as it is higher in the Solimões-Amazonas and Piedmont Andean areas and lower in the Guiana and Guaporé shield areas. Costa et al (2012) use GRACE observations to study the hydrologic loading in the Amazon region and obtain the highest values of 5-7 cm of vertical displacement per year in sedimentary and flooded areas of the region. In addition, Ibanez et al (2014) recognize a flexural subsidence with NE-SW orientation in the upper crust associated with the hydrologic loading in Central Amazonia.…”
