Caracterização climática do Estado do Ceará com base nos agentes da circulação regional produtores dos tipos de tempo

Abstract

It was done in this study, a climatic characterization of the state of Ceará, from the dynamics of atmospheric systems. Initially developed theoretical background on the evolution of climate studies from those achieved by traditional peoples, passing by the first climate formulations in Geography from Humboldt, Hann, Koppen, De Martonne, Strahler, Sorre and Pedelaborde, reaching Carlos Augusto Figueiredo Monteiro, responsible for this development tools applied to geographic foundations of understanding of climate. So the work is theoretical and methodological foundation Monteiro (1973), fundamental to the development of a climate characterization with emphasis on regional atmospheric circulation. Based on Monteiro (1973), the work follows a regional spatial scale, since the atmospheric dynamics can only be understood from this definition, and timescale delimited from the standard years. Further details was carried out in climatic element precipitation, identifying those weather systems responsible for the rainy and dry season. Thus develops a study of the genesis of rainfall for the state of Ceará, based on regional dynamics. The procedures adopted were conducted based on the natural succession rhythm of the types of time, designed from standard years and the application of rhythmic analysis, responsible for providing subsidies to the preparation of the participation rates of atmospheric systems that spatialized were used as a basis the attempted synthesis of regional atmospheric circulation for the state of Ceará.
