Short Summary

This study analyzed the spatiotemporal variability of the climatological water balance in the state of Goiás, identifying periods of soil water storage, water deficit, and water surplus to support irrigation planning.

Objective

• Investigate the spatiotemporal patterns of the climatological water balance in Goiás, Brazil

Study Configuration

• Spatial Scale: State-level analysis (Goiás, Brazil)
• Temporal Scale: Monthly data from 2011 to 2020

Methodology and Data

• Models used: Thornthwaite and Mather method for calculating mean monthly climatological water balance
• Data sources: TerraClimate database (monthly precipitation and reference evapotranspiration)

Main Results

• Marked water seasonality across the state, with soil water storage close to 100% from December to March and lowest levels between July and October
• Mean annual precipitation: 1,403.9 mm
• Potential evapotranspiration: 1,666.0 mm
• Accumulated water deficit: 688.0 mm (concentrated between May and October)
• Annual water surplus: 425.9 mm (occurring mainly between January and April)

Contributions

This study provides a detailed analysis of the spatiotemporal variability of the climatological water balance in Goiás, Brazil, highlighting the importance of considering rainfall seasonality and potential evapotranspiration when planning irrigation.

Funding

• This research was funded by the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) under grant number 2019/05611-0.
