- Spatial variability of air temperature in southern Brazil between 1961 -2011 Flavia Venturini Rosso Nathalie Tissot Boiaski Simone Erotildes Teleginski Ferraz Estudios Ambientales Temperature Southern Brazil Cluster Analysis Temperature is one of the most important variables used in climate studies. Changes in its time series can cause various soci al and political impacts, affecting diverse sectors of society, such as agriculture, for example. Southern Brazil is a region that relies heavily on agriculture, contributing to national production. Therefore, it is important to check the air temperature characteristic, i.e., its spatial pa ttern in this region. For this, daily data of minimum and maximum temperature of the air of the National Institute of Meteorology were used in the period from 1961 to 2011. The statistical technique of cluster analysis was applied to identify the homogeneo us regions of temperature and the boxplot for the characterization of each one . In general, the results showed maximum values of temperatures in the west of Rio Grande do Sul. The regions of minimum temperatures presented a more homogenous pattern, with av erages around 15 ºC. The regions of the maximum temperatures showed average values oscillating between 22 ºC and 28 ºC. 2017 artículo científico 0100-8307 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=467553545013 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4675/467553545013/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4675/467553545013/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4675/467553545013/467553545013.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4675/467553545013/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4675 Ciência e Natura application/pdf Universidade Federal de Santa Maria Ciência e Natura (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.39
