Abstract

This work presents the ENVI-met V4 calibration for the subtropical São Paulo. Combining land use data and field campaigns, microclimate measurements were carried out in the two São Paulo's most densely populated districts with contrasting built densities and building typologies. After that, comparisons between field measurements and computer simulations were carried out using the model's simple forcing tool. The model showed very similar results between measured and simulated data for air temperature in both study areas, with RMSE values between 1.6̊C and 1.9̊C, MAE between 1.4̊C and 1.8̊C and index of agreement between 0.85 and 0.92.
