Variable precipitation climate risk as to the state of Tamaulipas

The temporal variability of rainfall affects many human activities, especially in the handling and management of water resources, prevention of floods and droughts, planning and operation of agriculture, hydropower generation and water supply to the population human. The objective was to generate th...

The temporal variability of rainfall affects many human activities, especially in the handling and management of water resources, prevention of floods and droughts, planning and operation of agriculture, hydropower generation and water supply to the population human. The objective was to generate the mapping of rainfall to Tamaulipas, which were used for 140 meteorological stations, which are geographically located using GPS technology. We captured information Torrential Rains (Maximum in 24 hours) in digital format files. For processing and analysis of geographic data is created an image grid (raster) to a specific area per pixel (1 km2), based on the coverage of weather stations and study area of the project. In the creation of thematic mapping, we used the method of Universal Kriging spatial interpolation. The potential danger of heavy rainfall are found for the interval 230.7 to 580.0 mm, which is located to the towns of the Gulf Coast of Mexico, Soto la Marina and Aldama. Furthermore, the portion located in the South such as Ocampo, Xicoténcatl, Old Morelos, Nuevo Morelos y Gómez Farías. La variabilidad temporal de la precipitación influye en múltiples actividades humanas, sobre todo en la gestión y manejo de los recursos hídricos, la prevención de inundaciones y sequías, la planificación y operación de actividades agrícolas, la generación hidroeléctrica  y el abastecimiento de agua a la población humana. El objetivo del estudio fue generar la cartografía de lluvias torrenciales para Tamaulipas, para lo cual se utilizaron 140 estaciones meteorológicas, las que se ubicaron geográficamente utilizando tecnología GPS. Se capturó la información de lluvias torrenciales (máxima en 24 horas) en archivos en formato digital. Para la transformación y análisis de datos geográficos se creó una imagen grid (raster) con un área específica por píxel (1 km2), basada en la cobertura de las estaciones climatológicas y área de estudio total del proyecto. En la creación de la cartografía temática, se utilizó el método de interpolación espacial Kriging Universal. El peligro potencial de las lluvias torrenciales se ubican para los intervalos de 230.7 a 580.0 mm, los cuales se localizaron para los municipios de la costa del golfo de México, Soto la Marina y Aldama. Además los ubicados en la porción sur como Ocampo, Xicoténcatl, Antiguo Morelos, Nuevo Morelos y Gómez Farías.
