Urban vegetation is a nature-based solution for cooling cities. Under global warming and
urban population growth, it is essential to optimize urban vegetation configuration in the …

Evidence of heat mitigation through green infrastructure has been extensively documented
and quantified in the literature; however, the effectiveness of implementing these strategies …

This study investigated the role of urban geometry and urban shading in improving the
pedestrians' thermal comfort in hot climate of Ahvaz, Iran. Six urban canyons are selected in …

This paper focuses on the influence of urban morphology on pedestrian outdoor thermal
comfort in Harbin, located in the severe cold region of northeast China. Three typical districts …

We validated seasonal RayMan and ENVI-met mean radiant temperature (T MRT)
simulations to assess model performance in a sensitivity analysis from cold to extremely hot …

Urban form significantly impacts thermal conditions at the microscale. This research aims to
understand how existing zoning regulations that prescribe urban form affect the microclimate …

Extreme heat and associated health risks increasingly become threats to urban populations,
especially in developing countries of the tropics. Although human thermal exposure in cities …

Outdoor microclimate modelling is getting popular for estimating comfort conditions in urban
environments. Current calibration approaches usually rely on measurements of air …

Mean radiant temperature (MRT) has attracted growing interest over the decades both
indoors and outdoors, leading to the development of various measurement techniques and …

There has been no study on the impacts of street tree interval on the street-level radiant
environment, although it has been a key factor in the design of thermally comfortable streets …
