Abstract:
A sequential water balance was performed using the Thorn Thwaite and Mather method in order to verify the contribution of water storage and damming in the municipality of São Bento do Una in relation to the water crisis. The monthly average climatological precipitation data were grouped into 95 years, characterizing a period of climatological normal, where the software was used in electronic spreadsheets to extract the values of the monthly, annual averages of precipitation for the period from 1920 to 2018. Were estimated by the multiple regression line methods applied to the T-estima software, taking into account the geographic coordinates. Climatic impacts have caused changes in the region's water balance in the last decade. Environmental degradation, the local effect of human action, has by itself accelerated the process of modifying the regional climate, thus directly affecting the conditions of the rainfall regime and the availability of water in the soil. It is extremely necessary to use rainwater harvesting and other storage sources for human, animal and plant survival, thus contributing to the agricultural and poultry sector in the region. Climatic impacts may cause changes in the region's water balance, as heavy and short-lived rains are expected, leading to a drop in poultry and agricultural production.
