Abstract

The air temperature is one of the most important factors to be considered in any study related to a living being. Due to lack of meteorological stations, this study was done for the central Paranapanema region, to estimate average air temperatures. The data from nine cities that had long series of collected data were used. Models were used to estimate monthly mean maximum and minimum air temperatures of the region, based on geographical coordinates. Multiple regression equations were obtained depending on altitude, latitude and longitude. The coefficients of determination ranged from 0.76 to 0.89 for maximum and 0.39 to 0.96 for the minimum temperature. For the colder months the coefficients were lower. There was high correlation between altitude and mean annual temperatures, showing that the model can be used to estimate annual mean temperatures in all cities in the central Paranapanema.
