Outdoor thermal comfort is an important indicator to create a quality and livable environment. This study examines relationship between micro-meteorological personal variables of outdoor conditions in urban park. The data collection carried out using two methods combination: measurement questionnaire survey. finding shows that most the respondents were comfortable with thermal, wind, humidity c...

To date, studies of outdoor thermal comfort (OTC) have focused primarily on physical factors, tending to overlook the relevance individual adaptation microclimate parameters through psychological and physiological behaviors. These adaptations can significantly affect use urban spaces. The study presented here investigated these issues, with a view aiding sustainable development. Measurements OT...

Abstract Together, the heat island effect and air pollution pose a threat to human health well-being in urban settings. Nature-based solutions such as planting trees are mitigation strategy improve outdoor temperatures (thermal comfort) enhance quality areas. In this study, thermal comfort, particulate matter levels were compared between treeless treed areas provide better understanding of how ...

The unique climate and the landscape of severely cold regions in winter attract many tourists. outdoor thermal environment affects space use tourist experience, becoming one key factors design attractions. comfort tourists from different should be considered, but it has been poorly studied regions. This paper explores differences between local non-local through field measurement a questionnaire...

Trees and shrubs, as a part of the green infrastructure, are important for well-being urban dwellers. This research aims to study eco-efficiency trees on outdoor thermal comfort, defined by ratio change in physiological equivalent temperature (PET) trees’ cost. Field data were collected compared with station calibrate create base case model. After model was created, researchers created scenario...

Urban Heat Islands (UHIs) and Cool (UCIs) can be measured by means of in situ measurements interpolation methods, which often require densely distributed networks sensors time-consuming, expensive many cases infeasible. The use satellite data to estimate Land Surface Temperature (LST) spectral indices such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) has emerged last decade a promising ...

Providing thermal comfort in the courtyards of academic buildings is important and increasing tree canopy coverage (TCC) presents a convenient feasible method to achieve this; however, few studies have comprehensively evaluated cooling effects TCC, considering both outdoor heat dynamics. In this study, we selected two typical at Guangzhou University, each with having different height-to-width r...
