The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) in identifying extreme rainfall and droughts in the Paraguaçu River Basin (BA) [PDF]
Ambiência, 2016 O objetivo deste trabalho foi o de estudar os eventos extremos de secas e chuvas na bacia hidrografica do rio Paraguacu (BHRP). A ma distribuicao de eventos de precipitacao pluvial no Nordeste do Brasil esta fortemente associada a interacoes entre a atmosfera, os oceanos e a fisiografia regional.
