Abstract
From past to present, human beings are striving to live following climatic conditions. With the increase in urbanization, these conditions have become more difficult, and especially in the summer months, some settlements have become unbearable. One of these settlements is the Adana-Çukurova district. This study aims to determine the temperature areas felt by the Heat Index method in the Adana-Çukurova district and its surroundings. Bioclimatic comfort zones of the summer months were determined with the climate data obtained from the General Directorate of Meteorology, and these comfort zones and thermal stress levels were classified according to PET.
