英文摘要	It is known that the built environment modifies climatic variables that impacts on the human body energy balance. The thermal comfort is one of the factors that influence the outdoor habitability of the space. This study analyzes the interaction between micro-climate and urban morphology to determine the degree of thermal comfort of low-density areas in a city with arid climate (MendozaArgentina). For this purpose, seven representative urban canyons (UC) were morphologically and forestall characterized and micro-climatically monitored. The cases are inserted in different urban grid morphologies. The thermal comfort was calculated by COMFA, and the relationships between morphology and comfort were quantified using the Pearson index. The results show that the thermal comfort of the UC varies in a range between 70 to 20%. This shows that the combination between urban footprint, profile and forestation determines the thermal habitability. It is also observed that for same urban grid morphology, the UCs have different responses regarding outdoor comfort and night cooling. This highlights how the design and planning decisions of the urban schemes impacts for defining which strategies prioritize in order to achieve the sustainability of the built environment.
