SUMMARY:

Understanding the balance of mass and energy on the Earth's surface is necessary to understand the physical, biophysical, biological and climatic processes, in the various spatial and temporal scales, and their external influences. Even under conditions of ENOS witnessed, the ecosystem managed to maintain itself within the metabolic normalities within space and time. Evidencing the role of forest ecosystems in regional and global climate regulation. Most of the energy absorbed by the surface was released in the form of latent heat, a behavioral pattern for sites similar to this study. It is suggested to build a new model that allows comparing and evaluating, with more consistency, the closing of the energy balance. Evapotranspiration was controlled in its entirety by the physiological factors of the vegetation, especially the stomata. Except for the less rainy period in 2015, when the decoupling factor tended to 1. Knowing that the vegetation structure can influence the metrics evaluated, for example, the surface conductance, more specifically the canopy layer, studies are suggested about the floristic composition of the vegetation, as well as the leaf characterization of the predominant species in the study site, in view of the difference that exists between the species in relation to their stomatal distribution, whether hypo, epi or anisoestomatic. The wind direction was predominantly NE and L during the years evaluated, being in agreement with most studies located in this region of the globe to the detriment of the confluence of the trade winds, although with its intensity reduced in relation to so-called normal years. The wind intensity did not show statistical difference when compared by seasonality to other studies. Presenting few variations in relation to the direction. Knowing the flow structure above plant formations, especially forest ones, which are complex by the way, is necessary for a better understanding of the impacts they cause in the wind field. The results obtained here, as well as the others found in the literature, are of great interest in improving parameterization of the exchange processes between the surface and the atmosphere, having great application in numerical modeling for the flow above the tropical region, leading to the development of better prognoses of time, with applications in weather forecasting, environmental degradation, pollution, agriculture and health.
