Study of the hygrometric field in summer seasonal situation: the case of the carapina-serra / ES district

Abstract

The urban grid growth of cities, modifies the space-time variability of the climatic elements. However, air humidity is not among the most analyzed, although air humidity is important in that it is an agent that transfers energy from one place to another on the surface of the Earth. As well as, along with clouds, it influences the transmission of radiation as it determines the state of human physiological comfort. In this sense, the research was proposed to evaluate the distribution of moisture in the district of Carapina, located in the municipality of Serra, Espírito Santo, in a seasonal summer situation. For this, we used mobile transect (10h00min, 16h00min and 20h00min), with 42 observation points and six fixed points. Among the results, it can be highlighted that the rainy field of the district of Carapina, in a situation of ASAS performance, the results indicated that in the morning and afternoon collections the collection points with higher values of relative humidity of the air were arranged along of the coastal strip. At night collection this pattern changed, and the highest mean moisture registers extended throughout the northern portion of the Carapina district, especially in the interior portion.
