1 Federal University of Pernambuco Application of SWAT model for streamflow simulation in the Una River Basin, Northeast of Brazil José Guimarães de Carvalho Neto Adviser: Suzana Montenegro Co-Adviser: Richarde Marques

2 Introduction SWAT as a tool to indentifiy opportunities of payments for environmental services (PES). Quintero (2009) Ecosystem Service Provider Ecosystem Function Ecosystem Service VEGETATION Water Regulation Drainage and natural irrigation Medium for transport Soil Retention Maintenance of arable land Prevention of damage from erosion Source: Groot et al 2002; Kremen, 2005

3 Review Pernambuco ICMS Sócio Ambiental Lei Estadual nº /00 ICMS Tax on the Circulation of Goods and Supply of Services Interstate and Intermunicipal Transportation and Communication (Imposto sobre Operações relativas à Circulação de Mercadorias e sobre Prestações de Serviços de Transporte Interestadual e Intermunicipal e de Comunicação) 1% for the maintenance and creation of Conservation Units Lei Federal nº 9.985/00 - National System of Conservation Units (Sistema Nacional de Unidades de Conservação da Natureza) Conservation Units: territorial space and its environmental resources, including jurisdictional waters, with significant natural features, legally established by the Government, with conservation objectives and limits set under special administration regime, which guarantees the application of adequate protection.

4 Review Productor Of Water Nacional Agency of Water (ANA) incentives for financial compensation to agents that demonstrably contribute to the protection and restoration of watersheds. Permanent Preservation Areas The County of Extrema, MG Water Conservative Lei Municipal nº 2.100/05 Some distance from the riverside (depends of the river width) Recovery and preservation Wellspring source of Permanent of water Preservation Areas (Leis 6.938/81 Slope e /12) bigger than 45º by the provision of technical assistance and financial... support. Payment is justified by the contribution of farmers to reduce soil erosion and sedimentation, for increase water infiltration, conservation of natural habitat. 4

5 Objective First analysis of input data and capabilities of the SWAT model simulating the River Una Basin.
