In this study, we apply the ENVI-met model to evaluate effects of combinations morphological and vegetation-related landscape features on urban temperatures thermal comfort. We simulated conditions 126 scenarios, varying aspect ratios street canyons, vegetation cover density, surface materials, orientations toward prevalent winds under an extreme heat situation. Our results show how physical pa...

The surface of the biomass monitoring is blocked rotational grazing land prerequisite for high scores (GF - 1) satellite multispectral image and artificial index test, using ENVI software GF1 or GF6 data (radiation calibration atmospheric correction RPC orthographical correction), then calculate vegetation (NDVI), NDVI can detect growth status, coverage eliminate part radiation error manual col...

This research employs the integrative process of sustainable urbanism by applying passive design strategies to promote a neighbourhood lifestyle. A selected in Dubai is analysed and assessed terms its existing achievements regarding sustainability. It does so simulating site’s potential, limitations, characteristics, buildings, transportation status, climate, culture order optimize develop crit...

Vegetation provides significant benefits for urban thermal environments attracting people to open spaces. Especially in tropical climates, squares are more vulnerable discomfort due surrounding buildings and increased hard surface coverage compared parks. Since the space planting is limited, a proper arrangement essential enhance outdoor comfort (OTC). Nevertheless, impact of different arrangem...

The improvement of the urban microclimate in densely-built central areas Mediterranean cities should be a key objective integrated and transport planning design accordance with UN Sustainable Development Goals on energy, sustainable cities, climate action. warm regions, already burdened by heat island effect, is expected to worsen further due global crisis. This study investigates performance c...

Blue-green infrastructure (BGI) is defined as a strategically planned network of natural and semi-natural areas with other environmental features designed managed to deliver wide range ecosystem services, which include microclimate regulation enhanced human thermal comfort. While green widely known be capable mitigating the adverse effects urban heat island, effect blue regulate comfort still p...

City park plays significant role for city green area and accommodating the social outdoor activities urban dwellers. Jakarta has initiated enhancement of its’ parks to provide comfortable public area. This study examines effects vegetation water body on microclimate thermal comfort in Banteng Park, Central Jakarta. uses Envi-Met 3.1 simulation. The result present that reduces air temperature (T...

Designing configuration of buildings and streets in an urban area by maximizing air movement is approach the sustainable city. The existing can affect microclimate formed, including airflow. airflow be used to create a comfortable city environment. Jalan Gajahmada one economic strategic areas Pontianak City which requires condition support activities there. that occurs Street affects conditions...
