Les microclimats urbains ne peuvent pas être expliqués uniquement sur la base de phénomènes scientifiques, mais sont également affectés de manière matérielle et spatiale par l'architecture locale de la ville. La disposition, la conception et la construction des façades des bâtiments ont un impact majeur sur les conditions de vent et de température. Pour cette raison, l'architecture et la conception urbaine qui ont un effet sur les microclimats doivent être étudiées dans leurs contextes sociaux et culturels. La publication utilise des études de cas internationales pour expliquer ces relations. L'accent est mis sur les manifestations de microclimats urbains dans un contexte de conception architecturale et urbaine. Les lieux étudiés sont situés en France, en Italie, aux États-Unis, en Nouvelle-Zélande, aux Philippines, à Taiwan et au Burkina Faso. Urban microclimates cannot be explained solely on the basis of scientific phenomena, but are also affected materially and spatially by the city?s local architecture. The layout, design, and facade construction of buildings have a major impact on wind and temperature conditions. For this reason, architecture and urban design that have an effect on microclimates must be investigated in their social and cultural contexts. The publication uses international case studies to explain these relationships. The focus is on manifestations of urban microclimates in an architectural and urban design context. The places investigated are located in France, Italy, the USA, New Zealand, the Philippines, Taiwan, and Burkina Faso.

Hatte die Architektur des 20. Jahrhunderts die Kontrolle des Gebäudeklima zur Hauptaufgabe erklärt, so muss die Architektur im 21. Jahrhundert den Umgang mit dem Stadtklima lernen. Städtische Hitze und Luftverschmutzung gilt es in die Planung und Gestaltung einzubeziehen. Basierend auf empirischen Erkenntnissen aus Kairo, Chongqing, Genf und Santiago de Chile verdeutlicht das Buch, dass Materialität und soziale Praktiken, verknüpft mit Raumbeheizung, Siedlungsbegrünung, Straßenausrichtung oder Klimapolitik, das Gewebe zeitgenössischer Stadtklimata bilden. Die Publikation verbindet soziokulturelle und meteorologische Daten. Sie plädiert für eine neue Art der "Thermal Governance", die die Wechselwirkung von klimatischen und sozioökonomischen Phänomenen in zeitgenössischen Städten berücksichtigt. While 20th century architecture learned to control the climate of a building, the architecture of the 21st century needs to learn to cope with the climate of cities. Problems such as urban heat and air pollution need to be included in planning and design. Based on empirical realities in Cairo, Chongqing, Geneva and Santiago de Chile, the book underlines that the materiality and social practices attached to room heating, compound greening, street alignment or climate policies together form the tissue for contemporary urban climates. It interweaves socio-cultural with meteorological data and pioneers the new concept of "thermal governance" by linking architectural and technological as well as legal and economic dimensions of climate control in urban environments.
