Desastres naturais no Estado do CearÃ: uma anÃlise de episÃdios pluviomÃtricos extremos / Natural disasters in the State of CearÃ: an analysis of extreme rainfall episodes

Jander Barbosa Monteiro 15 April 2016 (has links)
O objetivo deste trabalho à estabelecer critÃrios para definir valores normais e extremos para a chuva no Estado do Cearà e verificar sua relaÃÃo com a ocorrÃncia de desastres naturais. Metodologias estatÃsticas (tÃcnica dos quantis e metodologia dos mÃximos de precipitaÃÃo) foram utilizadas no intuito de analisar eventos extremos no Estado na sÃrie histÃrica em anÃlise (1980-2013). A metodologia presente no banco de dados Emergency Events Database (EM-DAT) tambÃm serviu de subsÃdio para identificar sinais de ocorrÃncia de desastres e sua relaÃÃo com a ocorrÃncia de eventos extremos (estiagens e inundaÃÃes) em diferentes regiÃes do Estado do CearÃ. Os resultados obtidos apÃs a aplicaÃÃo das tÃcnicas estatÃsticas permitiu pontuar e identificar vÃrios eventos de chuva extrema em diversas Ãreas do Estado, tanto na porÃÃo litorÃnea, como nos municÃpios mais interioranos. A maioria destes eventos foram registrados nos meses iniciais do ano e geralmente estavam associados a atuaÃÃo da Zona de ConvergÃncia Intertropical â ZCIT. Os fenÃmenos de estiagem tambÃm foram identificados a partir das tÃcnicas estatÃsticas que possibilitaram uma anÃlise do comportamento da chuva em diferentes regiÃes do Estado. A partir da identificaÃÃo dos eventos extremos, estes apresentaram alguma evidÃncia de impacto (nÃmero de atingidos, decretos de situaÃÃo de emergÃncia, etc.) que proporcionaram a deflagraÃÃo de um desastre natural. Os municÃpios interioranos, situados em Ãreas de ocorrÃncia da depressÃo sertaneja foram os mais afetados por estiagens. No entanto, as inundaÃÃes, quando ocorrem, nÃo se limitam somente Ãs porÃÃes litorÃneas ou serranas do Estado e acabam repercutindo inclusive em municÃpios localizados no sertÃo cearense. Evitar a ocorrÃncia de eventos extremos no Estado à humanamente impossÃvel. Contudo, a sociedade e o poder pÃblico devem adotar medidas que minimizem consideravelmente os impactos, possibilitando assim uma cultura de convivÃncia com os desastres naturais. / The aim of this study is to establish criteria for the definition of both normal and extreme values for the rain in the state of Cearà and check their relationship with the occurrence of natural disasters. Statistical methodologies (the quantile technique and the maximum precipitation methodology) were used in order to analyze extreme events in the State of Cearà in the time series in question (1980-2013). This methodology that is present in the Emergency Events Database (EM-DAT) also served as a subsidy to identify signs of disaster occurrence and their relationship with the occurrence of extreme events (droughts and floods) in different regions of the State of CearÃ. The results obtained after applications of statistical techniques allowed counting and identifying various heavy rainfall events in many areas of the state, both in the coastal part and in most provincial municipalities. Most of these events were recorded in the early months of the year and were usually associated with activities of Intertropical Convergence Zone - ITCZ. The dry season phenomena were also identified from statistical techniques that made possible an analysis of the rain behavior in different regions of the state. The extreme events, based on their identification, showed some evidence of impact (number of people affected, emergency decrees, etc.) that provided the outbreak of a natural disaster. The provincials municipalities, located in occurrence areas of depressÃo sertaneja were the most affected by drought. However, floods are not only restricted to coastal or mountainous parts of the state and end up impacting also in municipalities located in the SertÃo. It is humanly impossible to prevent the occurrence of extreme events in the state. However, the society and the government must adopt measures that significantly minimize the impacts, thus enabling a coexistence culture with the natural disasters.
