## Abstract The effects of vegetation on human thermal stress in a hotβarid region were tested in two semiβenclosed urban spaces with various combinations of mature trees, grass, overhead shading mesh and paving. The index of thermal stress was calculated hourly from measured meteorological data in
## Abstract A quantitative analysis is presented for evaluating the diurnal thermal impact of proposed building arrangements on the urban canopy layer (UCL) air temperature, in summer in a hotβhumid region. Building configuration along an urban street is quantitatively specified in this study by th
