The watershed has an area of ​​4012,17 ha and is situated between the geographic coordinates: 22</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">o</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> 57’ 41" to 23</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">o</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> 02’ 42" S and 48</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">o</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> 11’ ’29" to 48</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">o</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> 20’ 09" WGR. The base map used was a Bofete (SP) planialtimetric letter for the extraction of contours and hydrography, to determine the morphometric indices. The results shows that low values ​​of drainage density associated with the presence of permeable rock, facilitate the infiltration of water into the soil, reducing runoff and the risk of erosion and environmental degradation. The low value of shape factor and circularity index indicates that the watershed tends to be more elongated with less susceptibility to more pronounced floods. The environmental parameter, roughness coefficient, allowed to classify the watershed for agriculture vocation.</span></p>}, number={2}, journal={Revista Brasileira de Engenharia de Biossistemas}, author={Nardini, R.C. and Campos, S. and Gomes, L.N. and Ribeiro, F.L. and Pissarra, T.C.T. and Campos, M.}, year={2016}, month={Jun.}, pages={170–180} }
