Kentsel alanlar, iklim değişikliğinin yarattığı olumsuz etkilere karşı savunmasızdır ve bundan dolayı bu yoğun bir şekilde maruz kalmaktadırlar. Bu sebeple, şehir planlama sürecinde önemli gündem konularından biri etkilerini azaltmak amacı doğrultusunda kentler tasarlamaktır. iklimin ölçmek azaltabilmek için kentsel mikro (mikro klima) modellemelerinin doğruluğu yüksek yapılması önemlidir. Günü...

Morphological characteristics of cities significantly influence urban heat island intensities and thermal responses to waves. Form attributes such as density, compactness, vegetation cover are commonly used analyse the impact morphology on overheating processes. However, use abstract large-scale classifications hinders a full understanding trade-off between single buildings their immediate surr...

Amaç: Literatürde okul bahçelerinin farklı yönleriyle (büyüklükleri, yeşil alan / sert zemin dengesi vb.) ele alındıkları görülmektedir. Ancak iklimsel açıdan değerlendirildiği çalışmalar çok fazla sayıda değildir. Çocuk ve genç bireylerin zamanlarının önemli bir bölümünü geçirdikleri iklimle dengeli tasarım odağında değerlendirilmesi çalışma konuları arasında yer tutmalıdır. Bu nedenle çalışma...

The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect represents a threat to the well-being of cities. Cities must adapt this phenomenon, prioritizing improvement outdoor environment quality. materials have great impact on quality, energy demand, and citizens’ well-being. Based literature, it can be stated that changing albedo on-site (pavements, facades) is relevant strategy. environmental reflective from buildi...

Urban overheating significantly affects people’s physical and mental health. The addition of street trees is an essential, economical, effective means by which to mitigate urban heat optimize the overall thermal environment. Focusing on typical canyon clusters in Harbin, China, landscape morphology was quantified streetscape interface measurements (sky view factor, tree building factor). Throug...

One of the most important issues in urban studies relating to climate and environmental sustainability is analysis thermal conditions public spaces, especially streets, since this issue seems affect comfort citizens using such spaces. Thus, main aim present study investigate effect streetscape parameters on streets a hot summer semi-arid climate. For purpose, Karimkhan-e-Zand Street Shiraz, Ira...

Abstract Climate change impacts biodiversity, the use of public spaces, as well building energy demand, and health in Mediterranean cities. The courtyard is a common typology private/public open space area, which, according to previous research, substantially affected by climate change. main reasons are be found limited ventilation significant amount radiation received upper surfaces. A prelimi...

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has witnessed fast growth in urban development the past four decades. A plan to build 7270 houses by 2021 been initiated local authorities. Different sustainability guidelines are being implemented, including Public Realm Manual Abu Dhabi. These tailored consider hot and arid climate of UAE as well applied materials, inclusion greenery, shading devices, etc. Dubai...

Many studies have explored outdoor thermal comfort during the last several years, ever since it has been strongly related to human health and well-being. The physiological equivalent temperature (PET) is one of most commonly used indexes. It approved applied within different urban spaces climates. This study a comparative research that importance using mean radiant (Tmrt) in PET assessment by e...

Water is the source of life and fundamental element ecology, climate inseparable from water. To evaluate influence water-adaptive space in a traditional Weizi (polder village) settlement on its microclimate, authors analyzed morphological characteristics such polder village applied ENVI-met model to simulate impact water bodies elements human thermal comfort. This paper demonstrates positive im...
