This research aims to develop a methodology to diagnose and analyze the daily evolution of the magnitude and intensity of urban heat islands in mid-sized cities in tropical and temperate climates. Hence, this, automatic temperature and humidity recorders, and thermal images of Landsat 8 will be used in two mid-sized cities, with different climatic characteristic: Presidente Prudente (Braz…
This research aims to develop a methodology to diagnose and analyze the daily evolution of the magnitude and intensity of urban heat islands in mid-sized cities in tropical and temperate climates, taking into account the characteristics of the active surface and atmospheric systems. Hence, this, automatic temperature and humidity recorders, and thermal images of Landsat 8 will be used in …
The frontiers are boundarys, this means, integration areas where the processes manifest itself by such a discontinued objective logic of landscape, or still, by a permeabiliality too accentuated between the territory fragment submitted to territorials definitions or redefinitions more, or, less, independents. This Project has how biggest objective studying differents ways of integration o…
Temperature and precipitation extremes have been the subject of study by numerous researchers around the world. Many analyses make use of statistical techniques, as well as integrate socio-environmental aspects to offer projections, evaluations and relationships with the impacts that can be caused to society, in its different sectors. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) p…
The urban process and the constant intervention in the natural landscape contributed to the arising of several problems in urban environments, which started presenting an unbalance in local climate elements producing its own weather. Between these problems that manifest in urban environment there are episodes of intense precipitation responsible for impacting directly on space organizatio…
The quickly Brazilian urbanization, which occurred after 1960s, has led to various forms of degradation of the urban environment, significantly interfering with the quality of live of city dwellers, as well as causing a house deficit. The Companhia de Desenvolvimento Habitacional e Urbano (CDHU) was one of the initiatives carried out by the Government of the State of São Paulo to mitigate…

Simulations with ENVI-met are a promising method to improve understanding of microclimate and design scenarios for more sustainable living conditions. The model was initially developed for temperate climates and because its basic settings do not necessarily correspond to tropical climates, it tends to underestimate daytime temperatures. To overcome this limitation and ensure that good inp…
In Brazil, the conservation and preservation of natural resources as well as the methods allowed to achieve these goals have well-defined legal frameworks. However, degradation of the urban environment and its effects on city life continue and intensify. The Brazilian academic and scientific communities have conducted research to find and offer alternative planning for urban growth and mi…
The project entitled "Urban Climate in Cuiabá / MT: The dimension of risk in areas of high Socio-spatial Vulnerability", which is proposed this stage is linked, has as main objective to assess the dimension of urban climate risk, related to the thermal field. The increase in vulnerability, risks and disasters across the planet has provoked a growing interest in this issue in recent years.…
