- Abstract
The morphometric characterization helps the study of the behavior of the microbasin, mainly in the aspect involving risks of erosive process related to floods. The present study had as objective the morphometric caracterization of the microbasins of "Água do Jaú" and "Água da Ema" located at the municipality of Rolândia-PR, using AutoCad software as a digitalization and channel quantification tool and a planialtimetric "Arapongas" leaf map as a cartographic base. Located at the follow UTM coordinates: 7414000 to 7428000 Km N and 448000 to 456000 Km E, with a total area of 5081 ha. The results demonstrate second order microbasins of branching channels and low drainage density. the conformation index, form factor and compactness coefficient indicate the elongated shape. The sinuosity index indicates a tendency to straight channels. The average slope of the basins classified the relief as wavy. The dimensional parameters together with the morphometric indices related to the shape, relief and composition and pattern of the drainage network allowed us to infer that the study areas have low susceptibility to flooding and erosion risks, reflecting a trend towards conservation of soil and water resources.
