Analysis of Morphometric Parameters of the Drainage Network and Road Network of the Ribeirão Paraíso Watershed, Jataí - GO

Studies related to morphometric analysis are extremely important for hydrogemorphological knowledge in watersheds. However, most rural roads not considered these analyses. Therefore, the objective of this article was verify if relations between drainage network, relief parameters, and road network indicate changes dynamics a watershed occupied by agricultural use. The sugarcane crop is an influencing factor increase arrived region from 2009 onwards. time frame 2005, 2010, 2015, 2020 chosen investigation. Bibliographic research quantitative measurements were used as methodology extract information through parameters. For this, ArcGIS® 10.6.1 Excel 2019 software used. As result, it identified that has fourth-order river hierarchy; its area 903.6 km², density 0.45 km/km², when included 2020, corresponding 2.1, 2.2, 2.4, 3.1 respectively. Thus, average period 84% higher considering only natural drainage, increasing mainly after insertion scenario. concluded parameters essential generate new about studied watershed. Rural should be since they influence hydrogeomorphological aspects In case, directly sugarcane. With inclusion analysis, increases capacity, significantly altering hydrological response hydrographic
