dc.description.abstract | The purpose of the paper was to assess pedestrians' thermal perception, in the semi-arid climate of Constantine, Algeria, with particular emphasis on the protocols implemented in public spaces during the post-COVID-19. Three outdoor public spaces were selected in August 2021 to conduct a field study involving 254 respondents, randomly assigned. The adopted approach combined objective and subjective assessment, as well as numerical simulations using ENVI-met. Accordingly, microclimate monitoring and a questionnaire survey were carried out simultaneously from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. in each study site. A strong association was found between the combined microclimate parameters (objective variables) and thermal sensation of the surveyors with (R2 = 0.74). Besides, Kruskal-Wallis H test revealed that the subjective thermal sensation was significantly influenced (p-value <0.05) by thermal history and purpose of visit (subjective variables). Most interviewees preferred ‘move to shade’ measure as a remedial behavior to reduce their thermal discomfort. Further, a neutral temperature of 22.7 °C PET was obtained by a linear regression between the Mean Thermal Sensation Votes (MTSV) and Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET), the comfort range was estimated between 18.6 °C ≤ PET≤ 26.8 °C during summer. Regarding the COVID-19 pandemic effects, the Chi-square test suggests that the frequency of pedestrian visits was statistically independent of the imposed pandemic measures. However, the planned activities were affected by social distancing and the use of face masks increases pedestrians' thermal discomfort. Overall, the study highlights the significance of environmental and non-environmental factors to improve outdoor thermal comfort, and ensure human well-being. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd | en_US |
