Hydroclimatic variables associated with El Nino and La Nina events at the Curuá-Una hydroelectric reservoir, Central Amazonia

ABSTRACT The anomalies of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) influence rainfall and therefore the regime of the rise and fall in the level of the rivers in the Amazon region. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on hydroclimatic variables and i...

It was used 27 years of monthly precipitation and water flow data to identify possible trends using a non-parametric test (Mann Kendall, p&lt;0.05), and the standardized precipitation index (SPI) was also calculated. The results indicate a positive tendency of the influence of the ENSO on hydroclimatic variables, although it was observed that the rainfall did not increase over the period of 1977 to 2004. The SPI indicates that extreme events of precipitation are related to El Nino and La Nina and that lower precipitation periods were more intense in the decades of the 80´s and 90's. The results show that El Nino events can directly affect the water balance at the micro-watershed of Curuá-Una, as was observed in 2015. RESUMO As anomalias da temperatura da superfície do mar (TSM) influenciam as chuvas e consequentemente o regime de subida e descida do nível dos rios na região amazônica. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a influência de eventos El Niño Oscilação Sul (ENSO) sobre algumas variáveis hidroclimáticas e identificar a existência de tendência sobre essas variáveis para o reservatório de Curuá-Una no oeste do Pará. Utilizaram-se 27 anos de dados mensais de precipitação e vazão para identificar possíveis tendências utilizando um teste não paramétrico (Mann Kendall, p&lt;0.05) e calculado o índice de precipitação normalizado (SPI). Os resultados apresentam tendência positiva da influência do ENOS sobre as variáveis hidroclimáticas, embora não foi observado um aumento na precipitação para o período de 1977 a 2004. O índice de precipitação normalizado revela que os eventos extremos de seca e precipitação estão relacionados com eventos de El Niño e La Niña e que os eventos de baixa precipitação foram mais intensos nas décadas de 80 e 90. Os resultados revelam ainda que eventos de El Niño afetam diretamente o balanço hídrico da micro bacia do reservatório de Curuá-Una, como recentemente em 2015.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0044-5967</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 0044-5967</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1590/1809-4392201600083</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia</publisher><subject>drought ; level ; precipitation ; SPI</subject><ispartof>Acta amazonica, 2016-09, Vol.46 (3), p.303-308</ispartof><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c396t-145d57e8bd90dc63ef6f977897b815cb17ff14c3d3a2cbaa0ed0147b364425a13</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c396t-145d57e8bd90dc63ef6f977897b815cb17ff14c3d3a2cbaa0ed0147b364425a13</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,27924,27925</link.rule.ids></links><search><creatorcontrib>VALE, Roseilson Souza do</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>GOMES, Ana Carla dos Santos</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>SANTANA, Raoni Aquino Silva de</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>TÓTA, Júlio</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>MILLER, Scott Dennis</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>SOUSA, Rodrigo Augusto Ferreira de</creatorcontrib><title>Hydroclimatic variables associated with El Nino and La Nina events at the Curuá-Una hydroelectric reservoir, Central Amazonia</title><title>Acta amazonica</title><description>ABSTRACT The anomalies of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) influence rainfall and therefore the regime of the rise and fall in the level of the rivers in the Amazon region.
