Descripción
Summary:In the bioclimatic planning of cities and particularly those located in arid environments, green spaces represent a missed hygrothermal opportunity as mitigators of urban climate. This article quanti es the thermal comfort of urban green spaces (UGS) in a city in west-central Argentina located in the South American Arid Diagonal, based on the UTCI index. This index was calculated from climatic measurements taken in 19 UGS in the summer of 2014. In each UGS, the value of the UTCI index was compared with that calculated for the urban surroundings. The percentage difference between them was used to group the bioclimatic performance of UGS into ve categories according to the divergence with the city ́s general climatic conditions. The results made it possible to identify the minimum tree parameters for UGS, as an objective of the bioclimatic planning of urban green areas in cities in arid environments.
