Variations on actual evapotranspiration (ET) and biomass production (BIO) among ecosystems and sub basins were strongly detected, affecting the water productivity based on ET (WP = BIO/ET). The mean ET daily rates were 2.1 mm d-1 for both, Forest Zone (FZ) and Savanna (SV), and 1.3 mm d-1 for Caatinga (CA), while regarding BIO they were 67, 68 e 33 kg ha-1 d-1, for FZ, SV, and CA, respectively resulting in corresponding average WP values of 2.6; 2.5, and 1.7 kg m-3. The modelling by using the MODIS reflectance product together with gridded weather data presented operational applicability for monitoring water and vegetation dynamics at a 16-day period and at a 250 m spatial resolution along the year, under conditions of distinct water availability. The satisfactory results highlighted the suitability of geotechnological tools to subsidize the rational natural resources management on large scales in societies with different environmental vulnerabilities.  aBiomass production  aEvapotranspiration  aLand use change  aRemote sensing  aWater resources  aCondição Ambiental  aCondição Social  aEvapotranspiração  aRecurso Hídrico  aSensoriamento Remoto  aUso da Terra1 aTAKEMURA, C.
