Sixty-two percent of basin in located in Brazil. This study was undertaken to measure the intensity and timing of wet and dry seasons, climatic deviation patterns, and atmospheric water balance in the Amazon Basin. Analysis of rainfall provides knowledge on the dynamics od water recharge the ecosystem in the Amazon Basin. Rainfall data, collected mailnly from 1950 to 1990, from 533 weather stations were use in tis analysis. The data varied from 4 to 64 years for collection and had an average of 12.1 years per station. Rainfall is normally distribution of extremes are highly asmmetrical, generally being right skewed because the rainfall values are equal to or greater than zero.  aAmazonia  ameasurement  arain  aChuva  aMedição  aPrecipitação Pluvial  aBacia amazonica  aBrasil  aPrecipitation  aSistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG) - Distribuição pluviométrica na Bacia Amazônica  aSistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG) - Interpolação Kriging
