Abstract
In this study, the effect of the street and its trees on the sidewalk thermal environment has been examined by carrying out the summer and winter measurements in the four types of the urban canyon. The results can be concluded as follows, 1) The structure of the street affects its environment significantly. The winter result has shown that the wider the street is, the higher air temperature is during the day. 2) The air temperature during the night is mainly affected by the skyview factors. The narrower street results in a relatively higher air temperature than the wider street. 3) From the summer result, the street trees have a significant effect on the sidewalk thermal environment. The air temperature decreased with the amount of the street trees planted. 4) The air emperature has a close relation with the sidewalk surface temperature. The lower surface temperature, the lower air temperature.
