AGROCLIMATE ZONE IN EUCALYPTUS PLANT FOR EXTREME SOUTH AND COAST OF DISCOVERY OF BAHIA STATE, BRAZIL.
Relief, Soils, Interpolation, Water Deficit.
Information on climatic distribution, soil, and relief applied to geoprocessing are important characteristics andinformation that allow good planning of activities in an area. The objective of this study was to describe thecharacteristics of precipitation, temperature, humidity, evapotranspiration, water deficit, soils, slope and altitude in theFar South and Discovery Coast, Bahia, Brazil, generating maps with each characteristic. The generated maps wereelaborated through Geoprocessing techniques. The precipitation map, Temperature were the result of a global databaseavailable from WordClim, soil data from the State Institute of Environment and Water Resources-INEMA and forSRTM slope and altitude images available from the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation EMBRAPA. Theresults allowed us to observe the areas with the highest rainfall and areas with the highest water deficit. Based on theprepared maps, the northeast and southeast show higher rainfall in the year and annual high temperatures, this zone isfavored by the flat and undulating relief, with well drained soils and low altitudes that allow the development of crops;Although the southeast has higher precipitation, it can be observed that it presents higher evapotranspiration, waterdeficit and high temperatures.
