Microclima y Confort Térmico Urbano

This article presents a review of the existing literature regarding the design of urban spaces, microclimate and urban thermal comfort. The microclimate and thermal comfort in urban spaces, especially in cit-ies located in tropical regions, must be approached from the concepts and theories that allow understanding the incidence of microclimatic parameters and urban fabric on the sensation of thermal comfort and bioclimatization of the urban spaces. In this way, this document shows the significance of planning, urban design and microclimate of a city in tropical regions, exploring the classification of local climatic zones at an urban level, the urban heat island, urban thermal comfort, micro-climatic parameters such as air temperature, relative humidity, wind, solar radiation and natural lighting, vegetation and its characteriza-tion in urban spaces and the morphology of a city
