- Abstract
This paper presents an overview of the observed impacts of changes in land use and land cover on catchments hydrology with emphasis on tropical regions. Initially, the first assertions about the impacts of changes in land use and land cover we present. The first debates and the scientific pioneers on the subject in this context. Then we mention the direct and indirect impacts of changes in land use and land cover and the role of forests we present. A brief survey of studies from around the world explores the tropical regions, with studies in South America, Asia and Africa. The scale effect of general studies and regarding habitat fragmentation is discussed, and finally, in the final considerations, some trends and proposals for the future of these studies are presented.
