Estudos para um diagnóstico quali-quantitativo em bacias experimentais: estudo de caso, bacia do rio Piabanha

Abstract

This paper presents a preliminary analysis of water quantity and quality data in the Piabanha’s river basin in the Project "EIBEX-I”, through the activities undertaken directly by CPRM team. These activities aim to assess the state of its water resources by obtaining a data series that in the future may be used for many studies such as hydrological modeling, stream-flow regionalization, etc.. Initially, the quantitative aspect was prioritized to obtain time series of water discharge and level and rainfall. About water quality, the results show a great domestic sewage contamination in the urban area and, in general, less metal contamination in the basin.
