Avaliação da distribuição da chuva nas vazões maximas urbanas usando dados de radar e de pluviografo

TL;DRAbstract

The precipitation is one variable of the hydrological cycle that shows a large spatial variability.Conventional rain gauges only provide valid records from the positions next to the instrument.The low density of rainfall data recording posts in Brazilian watersheds has been the determinant factor of the uncertainties on the results of various hydrological models that have been applied in this country.In this context, the study of spatial estimates of precipitation can be extremely useful to find more accurate hydrographs of projects.These estimates, despite these poor data observed, may provide a good knowledge of the spatial rain distribution at the environment.With this study, the estimates of the spatial distribution of precipitation, using a weather radar, may be compared with the rainfall data from the recording stations.The data of the spatial distribution of precipitation is used as an input at the distributed hydrological model "Storm Water Management Model (SWMM)", which was a
