abstract = "Heat and moisture exchanges between the ground surface and the
atmosphere are frequently dominant driving mechanisms for
mesoscale circulations. These surface processes depend on the soil
and surface characteristics, thus presenting spatial variation.
Over land, significant diurnal changes of temperature and moisture
balance near the interface with the atmosphere also occur. So,
coupled models of heat and moisture transport in the soils near
its surface require information about soil thermal properties,
which are used to determine temperature profiles and heat flux in
the soil. In particular over the Amazon region, a vast area has
been changed into pasture or agricultural land, a change that
produces significant alterations in the soil-vegetation-atmosphere
interactions and, consequently, in the weather and climate. In the
present work, the intradiurnal variability of soil temperature,
heat flux and moisture content in eastern Amazonian are analyzed.
The thermal diffusivity is iteratively obtained through a
numerical solution of the heat conduction equation using soil
temperature series. The measurements were collected within the
Mil{\^e}nio-LBA program - Subproject UFPA, during the experiment
CiMela ({"}Mesoscale Circulations in Amazonian East{"}), held
during the dry period of 2003 in different ecosystems of the
Par{\'a} State: (i) forest (Caxiun{\~a} Reserve, Melga{\c{c}}o
- 01°42'30''S; 51°31'45'' W); (ii) pasture (Soure, Maraj{\'o}
Island); (iii) natural mangrove (Tracuateua Island,
Bragan{\c{c}}a ); (iv) degraded mangrove (Tracuateua Island,
Bragan{\c{c}}a); and (v) agricultural area (Fazenda Escola da
Universidade Federal Rural da Amaz{\^o}nia, Igarap{\'e}
A{\c{c}}u).",
