Summary: The remote sensing techniques have been instrumental, for example, in studies of land use and land cover with high relevance for the rational use of natural resources allying economic and environmental sustainability. This study aimed to apply the algorithm Surface Algorithm For Retrieving Evapotranspiration (SAFER) and MODIS images together with field measurements in order to analyze the biomass (BIO) in each class with indicatives of degradation of the potential production of pasture in the Watershed Alto Tocantins.
