Outdoor Thermal Comfort (OTC) is largely influenced by urban morphology and geometry of the urban landscape. In this study, the Local Climatic Zones (LCZs) approach was adopted to assess the OTC in different settings of Sriniketan-Santiniketan Planning Area (SSPA) during the summer season. The basic objective of this study is to assess OTC from both subjective and objective perspectives over eight LCZs. This study assessed OTC over LCZs using both field measurements and questionnaire survey. Non-parametric tests such as ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis tests were also performed to find out the significant difference of perception across LCZs. The result of ANOVA and Krushkal-Walls test showed that subjective perception of OTC across LCZs varied due to diversified physical landscape settings. The result also showed that the maximum (above 40 degrees C) and minimum (28 degrees C) temperature was recorded in built types (particularly compact low rise) and natural land cover types (dense forest and water) respectively. Highest PET was also recorded over the built-up LCZs (about 50 degrees C) that led to this planning region thermally very hot or extreme heat stress. The respondents living in LCZ3 and LCZ6 were more sensitive to the thermal sensation as compared to those living in other LCZs.This study was probably the first attempt dealing with the assessment of OTC over the tropical planning region using LCZ approach from subjective and objective perspectives. Therefore, this research study has an immense potentiality to formulate strategies to deal with the outdoor thermal conditions as well to implement climate sensitive planning for urban sustainability in tropical cities.
