Assessing the influence of neighborhood urban form on outdoor thermal conditions in the hot dry city of Biskra, Algeria
The quality of the thermal urban environment plays a vital role in outdoor human activities and the overall quality of life in residential neighborhoods. This study investigated the influence of two urban form variables, the height to width ratio (H/W) and sky view factor (SVF), on three outdoor the...
