Abstract

This article analyzes the climatic, physical, and sociospatial characteristics of the municipality of Miranda-MS, located in the ecological transition zone between the Cerrado and the Pantanal, and discusses how these factors influence environmental comfort in urban and architectural contexts. The research integrates climatic data from the ProjetEEE platform with thematic maps (geology, geomorphology, pedology, and vegetation) and considers the local socioeconomic reality, highlighting the vulnerability of peripheral populations. The results indicate that Miranda experiences a prolonged period of thermal discomfort throughout the year, intensified by inadequate urban infrastructure in underprivileged areas. The study proposes accessible bioclimatic guidelines adapted to the local social conditions, based on the integration of traditional knowledge and contemporary strategies for urban resilience.
