Description
Summary:The morphometric analysis of hydrographic basin provides data that allow the hydrological regime understanding, as well as vulnerabilities to flooding, inundation, erosion and drainage network maintenance. In this context, this article aims to analyze the Paraguai/Jauquara basin morphometry, in Mato Grosso. The data for the calculations of 14 morphometric parameters were generated, stored and processed through geotechnologies. The results indicated that the basin is vulnerable to the drainage network maintenance, causing concern because it can affect its water dynamics, the multiple use of waters and influence on the inundation pulse of Pantanal, Mato Grosso.
