abstract = "The causes explaining the spread of malaria in the world include
climatic changes, healthy service breakdown and migration. Due to
the threat of this endemic disease in the Amazon region, this
research aims at understanding the relationship between land use
and land cover change process, induced by the construction of the
Hydro-Electric Power Station of Tucuru{\'{\i}}, and the spatial
distribution of malaria incidence in the region. LANDSAT5 and
RADARSAT images were used respectively for land use mapping and
for monitoring the seasonal variation of UHE Tucuru{\'{\i}}
reservoir flooded area. A historic series of malaria data was also
used. It was determined that Novo Repartimento and
Tucuru{\'{\i}} with large areas bounded by the reservoir are
more prone to malaria incidence and that the time change of the
disease in this region is related to the hydrology and reservoir
operation, as well as with the precipitation and population
dynamic.",
