microclimate conditions and space use variations

Microclimate Conditions and Space Use Variations

This paper is a part of study about the impact of the microclimate on the space use and the user’s behaviours. The purpose of our study is to get an in-depth understanding of how people use out door public spaces in different climatic conditions, how their behaviour and perception of the space change with the climatic variations. We have employed a multi-method approach which combines a “qualit...

Variations in household microclimate affect outdoor-biting

Mosquito behaviours including the degree to which they bite Background inside houses or outside is a crucial determinant of human exposure to malaria. Whilst seasonality in mosquito vector abundance is well documented, much less is known about the impact of climate on mosquito behaviour. We investigated how variations in household microclimate affect outdoor-biting by malaria vectors, and . Ano...

The effect of proportional of open space to semi-open space in better use of climatic conditions in houses in coastal and foothill areas of East Gilan

Having a mild and humid climate, Gilan province is closer to the comfort zone than other regions of Iran. In addition, the use of radiation, wind, precipitation and humidity components in the spatial organization of native houses has led to the formation of a semi-open space next to the closed space. In general, the placement of spaces in this climate is such that there is no clear border betwe...

Microclimate land surface temperatures across urban land use/ land cover forms

Urbanization brings biophysical changes in the composition of the landscape. Such change has an impact on the thermal environment locally. The urban mosaic of land use and land cover is thus characteristically composed of local climate zones. The spatial variation in the land surface temperature across specific zone is studied for Bhopal city. The objective of the study was to understand how th...
