Resumo: Equipments used to register weather conditions became more accessible. However, studies that accurately quantify microclimatic conditions in forest ecosystems are still rare. This study aimed to describe and analyze the variations in the air temperature, air relative humidity and soil temperature in an Atlantic Forest fragment located in Mata do Junco Wildlife Refuge, Capela, Sergipe, Brazil. Weather stations programmed to record every 30 min over a period of one year were installed inside a forest area, composed by late successional species forming dense canopy, and in a 0.1 ha forest gap. Results showed that the microclimate in the dense canopy forest was less variable than in the forest gap, where daily and seasonal variations were more intense. The average air and soil temperatures were 0.6 ºC and 2.5 ºC higher in the forest gap, while the average air humidity was 6.9% higher in the dense forest. The Angstron index indicated a higher risk of wildfire occurrence in the gap.

No entanto, ainda são raros estudos que quantificam, com precisão, as condições microclimáticas em ecossistemas florestais. Este estudo teve por objetivo descrever e analisar as variações na temperatura do ar, umidade relativa do ar e temperatura do solo em um fragmento de Mata Atlântica localizado no Refúgio da Vida Silvestre Mata do Junco, Capela, Sergipe, Brasil. Estações meteorológicas, programadas para registrarem os dados a cada 30 min durante o período de um ano, foram instaladas em uma área florestal composta por espécies sucessionais tardias de copas densas e em uma clareira de 0,1 ha. Os resultados apontaram microclima com menor variabilidade na área florestal, enquanto na clareira as variações diárias e sazonais foram mais intensas. As temperaturas médias do ar e do solo foram, respectivamente, 0,6 ºC e 2,5 ºC superiores na clareira e a umidade relativa do ar foi 6,9% superior na área florestal. O índice de Angstron indicou maior perigo de ocorrência de incêndios florestais na clareira, em comparação à área de floresta densa.Embrapa Florestas2020-08-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/194210.4336/2020.pfb.40e201901942Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; v. 40 (2020)Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; Vol. 40 (2020)1983-26051809-3647reponame:Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/1942/920Copyright (c) 2020 autoreshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessWhite, Benjamin Leonardo AlvesSilva, Maria Flaviane Almeida2020-08-27T21:25:04Zoai:pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb:article/1942Revistahttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/PUBhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/oaipfb@embrapa.br || revista.pfb@gmail.com || patricia.mattos@embrapa.br1983-26051809-3647opendoar:2020-08-27T21:25:04Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
