Quantification of the Outdoor Thermal Comfort within Different Oases Urban Fabrics

Oases settlements are common entities of human agglomerations throughout desert regions. face several environmental challenges such as climate change, which can render them insufferably hot and unlivable within decades. Therefore, this study aims to assess the outdoor thermal comfort variation three different oases urban fabrics Tolga Complex in Algeria. The overarching aim is quantify guide landscape, designers improve comfort. methodology relies on microclimatic measurements weather datasets (TMY2, TMY3, TMYx), combining observations numerical simulations. A total 648 Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET) values were calculated Complex, Between 2003 2017, a remarkable change was found, causing high accelerated heat stress level 76%. results inform architects, planners climatologists about effects sprawl impact lands. Moreover, strategies should seek mitigation adaptation benefiting from existing green infrastructure palm groves.
