Variação do índice de aridez e tendência climática à desertificação para a região semiárida do nordeste brasileiro (Variation of aridity index and climatic trend to desertification for the semi-arid region of the Brazilian Northeast)

Abstract: R E S U M OUma das formas mais úteis e aplicadas para estudos de verificação da Tendência à Desertificação (TD) é através do cálculo do Índice de Aridez (IA). Assim, o presente trabalho se utiliza de tal metodologia para verificação da situação do IA e da TD na região semiárida do Nordeste brasileiro. O objetivo foi a investigação da variação do IA e suas classificações ao longo do período de 1961 a 2015, utilizando-se de séries temporais de 30 anos, além da TD para a região alvo do estudo. É consenso na liter… Show more

“…These elements of the aboriginal heritage highlight a close relationship between the native people and water, an important symbol that in uences their current artistic esthetic [6] and has affected the colonization of ancient people. Climate change studies about the stability of ecosystems in Brazil indicate that the Caatinga is among the most vulnerable globally, with strong deserti cation pressure in the region [7,8,9]. Despite the equatorial geographical position, the region's climate is hot semiarid with average annual temperatures around 24.5°C…”

“…The NEB is characterized by an irregular, highly variable distribution of rainfall in space and time. In this region, it is common to find high rainfall rates at locations adjacent to those with no record of rain [3]. Paraíba also experiences localized periods of drought within rainy seasons and distinct precipitation patterns among the state's mesoregions [4,5].…”
