The hydrographic basin processes are very representative samples of the Earth's relief dynamic therefore, they are frequently studied. However, the most of researches about this geological system are qualitative and, sometimes, insufficient to determinate the basin elements who influence the shape of the planet surface. In other side, the Morphometric Analysis Method is a kind of quantitative approach that reveals typical physic parameters of the studied basin, qualifying the environmental alterations. In this work, we used the Morphometric Analysis about the Rio do Tanque Basin, to determinate their morphologic and sedimentary peculiarities.
