BASES CONCEITUAIS EM CLIMATOLOGIA GEOGRÁFICA (the conceptual bases in geographical climatology)
Abstract
A Climatologia encontra suas bases na Meteorologia, que estuda a atmosfera e seus fenômenos, e preocupa-se com o registro e a medição dos mesmos, a fim de que possa determinar as condições físicas sob as quais foram produzidos. Desta forma, o inevitável confronto entre a Climatologia e a Meteorologia envolve os geógrafos numa discussão - sobre o uso e a aplicação de cada uma delas – que se deve iniciar, essencialmente, pelas definições de “tempo” e “clima”. O presente trabalho apresenta uma discussão sobre as bases conceituais da Climatologia e da Meteorologia, apoiando-se nas várias formas de abordagem de cada uma no intuito de apontar metodologias que mais atendam aos propósitos da chamada Climatologia Geográfica.
Palavras-chave: Climatologia Geográfica; meteorologia; clima.
ABSTRACT
The climatology is founded on the Weather, who studies the atmosphere and its phenomena, and is concerned with the registration and measurement of the same, so that it can determine the physical conditions under which they were produced. Thus, the inevitable clash of Climatology and Meteorology geographers involves a discussion - about the use and application of each one of them - is due to start, essentially, the definitions of “;time”; and “;climate.”; This paper presents a discussion of the conceptual foundations of climatology and meteorology, relying on ways to approach each one in order to highlight methods that attend more to the purpose of calling Geographical Climatology.
Key words: Geographical Climatology; meteorology; climate.
RÉSUMÉ
La climatologie a sa base dans la météorologie, qui étudie l’atmosphère et de ses phénomènes, et est préoccupé par l’enregistrement et de mesure de la même manière que peut déterminer les conditions physiques dans lesquelles ils ont été produits. Ainsi, l’inévitable confrontation entre les géographes de climatologie et de météorologie les mets dans un débat - à propos de l’utilisation et l’application de chacun -, il devrait commencer, en substance, les définitions de «temps» et «climat». Cet article présente une analyse de la base conceptuelle de la climatologie et de la météorologie, en s’appuyant sur plusieurs manières d’aborder chacun d’eux afin d’identifier les méthodes pour répondre aux besoins de plusieurs appels de climatologie géographique.
Mots Clé: Climatologie géographique; météorologie; climat.
