Resumo Inglês:

The objective of this study was to make a critical analysis and analysis of the two most widespread climate approaches in the country: the classical, traditional view (classical climatology) and the dynamic vision (dynamic climatology). The present research was developed through a bibliographical review of the most relevant subjects related to the subject examined, as well as a survey of the state of the art. The evolution of the concepts declima is presented in chronological form, showing the most important definitions defined by different authors. In addition to the definitions, the methodological procedures typically followed in terms of climatology are presented, which are analyzed in a critical way according to the principles of the climate approach (classical or dynamic) in which they are inserted. It is possible to observe that the use of the dynamic approach is still timid in comparison to the classical climate approach, still dominant and used in most educational institutions. The understanding of processes and atmospheric mechanisms, together with the understanding of climatic elements in an integrated way, taking into account the interdependence between these elements, causes that the dynamic climatology, gradually, gains more space and, therefore, it is perceived that its use has already been producing important research, with satisfactory results and pioneers
