Historical Projection of the Rainfall Distribution in the North Region of Brazil

From a set of primary and secondary monthly data from 1991 to 2022, the annual and seasonal climatological pattern of the North region of Brazil, where most of the Amazon Biome is located, was analyzed. An incomplete Gamma distribution model was applied to the climatological precipitation data (mm); atmospheric pressure (mb); incidence of solar radiation (kJ/m²); air temperature and dew (ºC); relative humidity (%); wind intensity (m/s) with direction and maximum gust. Data normalization techniques and spatial similarity identified different patterns and trends of precipitation in the region, with significant seasonality, especially in terms of rainfall. The highest precipitation rates occurred in the N-NW axis, inside the northern Amazonian area, while the lowest values were observed in the southern equatorial zone, on the limits of the Pará State with the Cerrado Biome. Four zones and one climate range were established: southern, central, northern west and northern east zones and extreme north area, all with significant similarity in precipitation and humidity. A trend was observed in the number of days with precipitation between 25 and 50% in the southern and central zones, and an increase in precipitation of 50 to 75% for the northern zone. The wind distribution model showed a tendency towards the presence of isotropic climate phenomena, presenting the same properties or characteristics. The results obtained are relevant to support research aimed at understanding global warming and its consequences, in addition to contributing to forest management programs, and establishing more effective protocols for cultivation in agricultural areas in the Amazon.
