AbstractDeforestation and agricultural expansion are the main anthropogenic factors that determine the land cover changes in the Legal Brazilian Amazon. These changes could alter the dynamic equilibrium between regional climate and vegetation. The mapping of the land cover usually clusters, as a single class, the forested, savanna type and grassland Cerrado physiognomies. This is caused by the difficulty to differentiate these physiognomies among them, due to similar spectral responses. However, the spectral behavior of these land cover classes may be identified when they are analyzed along the annual cycle, including both the dry and the rainy season. To validate this hypothesis the State of Tocantins, which is characterized by presenting extensive savannah areas, was chosen. The main data used were two MODIS Vegetation Indices, the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and the enhanced vegetation index (EVI), both for 16-days composition periods and 250 m resolution, and the near and medium infrared bands. A moisture index, the land surface water index (LSWI), was computed using these bands. To cover the area of the study, a mosaic of two MODIS tiles (h13v09 and h13v10) was used. For the seasonal analysis, four mosaics were used: for the rainy season, from January 01 to 16, 2004, and from March 21 to April 05, 2004, and for the dry season, from July 11 to 26, 2004 and September 29 to October 14, 2004. For each period, 3 mosaics were elaborated, corresponding to NDVI, EVI and LSWI index images, totaling 12 mosaics. The land cover classes were determined through an unsupervised classification technique of the index images. To validate the results of the classification, the Global Land Cover - GLC 2000 map (1 km resolution) was used. Finally, for the determination of the seasonal patterns of each class evaluated, a longitudinal profile was elaborated from a transect that includes the main classes of vegetation cover. The results of the classification show the occurrence of mixtures between classes of land cover: deciduous forest with agriculture, during the rainy season, and agriculture with savannah, during the dry season. They are identified from the profiles of the 3 indices that show similar tendency in the grouping of the land cover classes. Thus, a way to identify the Cerrado physiognomies in the Amazon region could be, first, the separation of the Cerrado class from the other classes using the rainy season data and, thereafter, by the classification of the Cerrado physiognomies, using the dry season data.
