abstract = "The deciduous forests (dry forests) are an important type of
forestlands present in the tropical savanna (Cerrado). They are
composed of deciduous species that lose up to 90% of the leaves in
the dry season. The identification of representative types of
tropical savannas vegetation through monotemporal satellite images
is difficult, but it may be facilitated when time series of images
along the hydrological cycle are analyzed. In this study, we
analyzed the time series of Landsat images from the Sao Miguel
basin, Minas Gerais State, to identify dry forests occurrences.
Five Landsat images from May to September of 2007 were converted
into the EVI (enhanced vegetation index) and summed one-by-one.
After, was executed an classification of the resultant image
through decision tree method. The numeric range for the dry forest
was obtained by statistical analysis of pixel values contained in
the area of dry forest that was bounded visiting the basin region.
Approximately 125 km2 (23,5% of the basin) of dry forest were
identified by this method. The results showed an increased
improvement in the dry forest mapping in the study area. The dry
forest has suffered intense deforestation, mainly by the increase
of the agricultural frontier and the advance of mining. Palavras
