O Clima Do Litoral Do Estado Do Paraná

Abstract

RESUMOO Brasil apresenta um vasto litoral, com cerca de 8.000 quilômetros de extensão. O litoral do estado do Paraná é um dos menores, representando cerca de 100 km deste total numa área de aproximadamente 6.600 quilômetros quadrados. Devido aos fatores estáticos e dinâmicos atuantes, o clima desta área apresenta-se de maneira complexa e particular. O presente trabalho sintetiza as características climáticas do litoral paranaense a partir da abordagem de dois elementos: a temperatura do ar e a pluviosidade. A chuva apresenta-se de forma concentrada nos meses de verão, sendo que as menores médias destacam-se nos meses de inverno. O total médio anual e sazonal varia entre a planície e as áreas mais altas, sendo estas as que apresentam os maiores índices. O total anual de chuvas, nos anos de ocorrência do El Niño, apresentou-se acima da média histórica, evidenciando a ligação entre aquele evento no oceano Pacífico e as chuvas no litoral Atlântico. A temperatura não apresentou grandes diferenças entre as estações analisadas, porém assim como a pluviosidade sofre a influência do relevo que se apresenta de forma bastante irregular nas proximidades da região, chegando a mais de 1 600 m de altitude. O tipo climático predominante na área é o Cfa, controlado por sistemas tropicais e polares.

The coast plane of the state of Paraná is one of the shortest, representing around 100 km of a total area of approximately 6,600 square kilometers. Due to static and dynamic factors, the climate of this area presents itself in ways complex and particular. This paper summarizes the characteristics of the Paraná's coast climate from the approach of two elements: the air temperature and rainfall. The rain presents itself so concentrated in the months of summer, and the medium -to-lower in the winter months. The total annual mean and seasonal ranges increases from the plains to the highest areas, which are those that have the highest rates. The total annual rainfall, in the years of the occurrence of El Niño, showed up above the historical mean, showing the connection between that event in the Pacific

Identification of Homogeneous Rainfall Regions in the Eastern Watersheds of the State of Paraná, Brazil

“…According to Vanhoni and Mendonça [35], the Paraná coast presents the highest rainfall totals in the state, with average values exceeding 2000 mm, and it is characterized by maximum rainfall during the summer due to the profound influence of the tropical Atlantic air mass, which enhances the oceanic influence and generates greater rainfall totals. Conversely, the Ribeira river watershed is characterized by one of the lowest rainfall averages in the state of Paraná, with annual rainfall averaging between 1200 and 1400 mm, because it is located in the leeward region of the Serra do Mar, which is subject to concentrated rainfall in the summer and a significant decrease in rainfall in the winter.…”

Breeding system and pollination of Pleroma trichopodum DC. (Melastomataceae): a potential species for the restoration of Atlantic Forest in southern Brazil

“…This reserve is located within an environmental protection area (Área de Proteção Ambiental de Guaraqueçaba) in Antonina, on the northern coast of Paraná State, southern Brazil. The climate is subtropical humid, with an average annual precipitation of 2534.5 mm (Vanhoni & Mendonça 2008) and an annual average temperature between 20.8 °C and 22 °C (Ferretti & Britez 2006).…”

Ecomorphology of crabs and swimming crabs (Crustacea DecapodaBrachyura) from coastal ecosystems

“…These collection sites are located on a coastal plain composed of sand, muddy areas, mangrove forests and saltmarshes, all with a similar humid subtropical climate (Cfa) (VANHONI; MENDONÇA, 2008).…”
