Resumen


Las ciudades modifican los parámetros microclimáticos aumentando el calentamiento urbano; en virtud de ello, existen diversas estrategias que colaboran a disminuir este impacto en contextos áridos. El presente trabajo evalúa el nivel de eficacia de dos estrategias factibles de ser incorporadas. Para ello, se diseñaron 96 escenarios que combinan 2 alturas de edificación (3 y 6m), 3 anchos de calle (16, 20 y 30m) y 4 orientaciones (E-O, N-S, NO-SE y NE-SO). Mediante el software ENVI-met se simuló el comportamiento térmico de los escenarios propuestos, el modelo fue validado mediante el monitoreo microclimático in situ. Las etapas de simulación fueron: 1.morfología, 2.forestación, 3.albedo y 4.estrategias combinadas. Los hallazgos más importantes indican que la incorporación de las estrategias combinadas resulta ser la opción más eficaz ya que se potencian los beneficios individuales; alcanzando disminuciones de hasta un 12% en la temperatura máxima, 10% en la mínima y 11% en la promedio.
