                         aplicou-se o Agrupamento Hier{\'a}rquico de Ward para determinar

                         (litoral), RH-2 (central) e RH-3 (sul). De modo geral a 
                         regi{\~a}o do litoral apresentou mais eventos secos que chuvosos. 
                         Nas demais regi{\~o}es (central e sul) a situa{\c{c}}{\~a}o

                         verificou-se que os eventos secos e chuvosos na Amaz{\^o}nia 
                         Oriental estavam associados, principalmente, a variabilidade

                         aims to determine homogeneous regions of the SPI-6 in the Eastern 
                         Amazon and analyze the main characteristics of dry and rainy 
                         events in each region. For the calculation of the SPI, we used 
                         rainfall data of 72 rainfall stations distributed in the eastern 
                         Amazon. Furthermore, were used Ward hierarchical grouping to 
                         identify homogeneous regions and the Principal Components Factor 
                         Analysis (PCA) to determine the main climate variability patterns 
                         associated with dry and rainy events. The results showed three 
                         homogeneous regions (HR): HR-1 (coast), HR-2 (central region) and 
                         HR-3 (south). Generally, the coastal region showed more dry events 
                         than rain. In the other regions (central and south) the situation 
                         is reversed, i.e, there are more rain events, but with short 
                         duration. The results obtained by PCA showed that the dry and wet 
                         events in Eastern Amazonia were associated, mainly, to climate 
                         variability associated the Atlantic Ocean (Atlantic Dipole) and 
                         Pacific Ocean (ENSO).",
