Landscape elements have a direct impact on the thermal environment and have become an important means to improve the quality of life of residents because of their direct influence on the thermal environment, but t. However, the selection and configuration of landscape elements have different effects on human thermal comfort inunder different climateic conditions. Therefore, in this study, in order to better understand the impact of residential landscape elements on the outdoor thermal environment and thermal comfort in a high-aLhasa is located in the middle of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, with an altitude cold climate area, the typical residential area of Lhasa in Tibet was taken as the research object,the thermal environment of a residential area with different landscape element configurations was numerically simulated based on the orthogonal experimental design method. The PET was taken as the optimization objective, and the simulation results were analyzed with intuitive analysis and variance analysis. The main objectives were as follows:
(1) To claof 3650 meters. Due to the particularity of its geographical location, the climate conditions in Lhasa are significantly different from those in Beijing, Xi'an, Lanzhou and other cities in the same climate area. At the same time, the local residents are mainly Tibetans. Religious culture and climate conditions have led to significant differences in the living habits and the needs forify the primary and secondary effects and advantages of various landscape elements on an outdoor thermal comfort under high altitude and coldrmal comfort of local residents compared with those of residents in other cities. Therefore, this study focuses on special climateic conditions.
(2), To cltarify the synergistic relationship between landscape elements and their interaction with outdoor thermal comfortking the typical residential areas in Lhasa, Tibet as the research object, in order to better under high altitude and cold climate conditions.
(3)stand the impact To put forward the experimental scheme and strategy of f residential landscape element allocation optimization in a residential area for the conditions of high altitude and a s on the outdoor thermal environment and thermal comfort in the plateau cold climate area.
1. ThUnique plane of the citygeographical location and climatic conditions of Lhasa is distribu
Lhasa is located in the middle of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, with an altitude of 3650 meters. The plane of the city of Lhasa is distributed in a belt from east to west. Two mountains (South Mountain and North Mountain of Lhasa) sandwich the city, and a river (Lhasa River) passes through the city. It is a typical axial development city. According to the Chinese standard meteorological data, the hottest month is June, and the coldest month is January. The monthly average maximum temperature is above 20°C, the monthly average minimum temperature is below −3°C, and the annual temperature difference is 18.1°C . Lhasa belongs to the cold region in China's architectural climate zoning, but because it is located in the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, the climate conditions of Lhasa are significantly different from those of Beijing, Xi'an, Lanzhou (cold climate region), and other cities. By comparing the enthalpy and humidity diagrams of the three cities , it can be seen that the annual temperature and the humidity of Lhasa are relatively lower, and the annual temperature difference is also relatively smaller. Beijing and Xi'an also have coexisting heat and humidity, but Lhasa has a dry climate, so there is no such phenomenon.
2. Characteristics of residents' behavior habits
InThe this research, 60 residential areas were investigated and analyzed based on the following two factors . (1) Architectural layout: most of the architectural layout forms were the determinant at high south and low north as well as the mixed type of peripheral and dLhasa area is affected by strong radiation, and the demand for shade space in summer is greater than that in winter. There is also a greater objective demand for the comfort of the outdoor space thermal environment in summer and winter (Figure 3). In this study, through a questionnaire survey, we examined the behavioral characteristics of outdoor activities of the local residents in Lhasa. The content of the questionnaire mainly included two parts: (1) basic information about respondents (gender, age, name, and ethnicity); and (2) respondents' behavior habits (activity time, activity form, and preferred activity venue).
3. Research status of the impact of landscape elements on outdoor thermal comfort under different climatic conditions
Determinaint combination, and the number of building floors was mainly that for multilayer and small high-rise buildings. (2) The current situation of tg how to create a healthy outdoor thermal environment based on nature based solutions has become a hot research topic, and it is particularly important to improve the outdoor thermal environment in residential areas because they are the basis for many outdoor activities. The landscape element allocations in rnvironmental factors that are closely related to the outdoor thermal environment and thermal comfort of a residential areas, which is as follows: The common greening fo mainly include greening, water bodies, and underlying surface. In terms of green space are trees, shrubs, and grass. The types of underlying surfaces mainly include floor tiles, permeable bricks, gravel roads, grass planting bricks, permeable plastic, and lawns. The number of waterscape layouting, in hot and arid areas, choosing trees that can reduce solar radiation is the most effective urban design strategy for reducing physiological equivalent temperature (PET) . The research of Middel et al. proved that compact building layouts had a greater impact on air temperature during the day than greening, the use of trees in compact low-density building areas is small, the waterscape form is relareduced the temperature by 2 ◦C, and trees in high-density building areas could effectively single, and the shapes are mostly still water and fountainsreduce air temperature by 0.2–0.4 ◦C , but this was ineffective in Cairo’s low-density built-up areas . In hot and humid climates, studies by Srivanit et al. and Zhuang et al.
2.2. Characteristics of residents' behavior habits
Thconfifirme Lhasa area isd that trees could affected by strong solar radiation, and the demand for shade space in summer is greater than that in winter. There is also a greater objective demand for the comfort of and change the wind environment, signifificantly reducing the average radiation temperature (Tmrt) and PET. The structure of the canopy, as well as the size, shape, and color of the leaves, affected the level of solar radiation . In cold climates, in addition to improving the outdoor space thermal environment in summer and winter (Figure 3), trees can also effectively improve the outdoor wind environment in winter by adjusting the layout of trees . In this study, through a questionnaire survey, we examinedemperate climates, Lee et al. confifirmed that the combined form of trees and lawns had a more signifificant effect on Tmrt and PET than lawns alone. In terms of water bodies, Lu et al. used a humid and hot climate as the behavioral characteristics of outdoor activities of the local residents in Lhasa. The content of the questionnaire mainly included two parts: (1) basic information about respondents (gender, age, nameackground to confifirm that a water body had a cooling effect in the daytime warming stage. Additionally, the evening cooling stage played a role in heat preservation and had the effect of humidifying and regulating the wind speed. In cold climatic conditions, the scale of inflfluence of hot and humid environments in waterfront residential areas depends largely on the volume ratio, the height of the embankment, and ethnicity); and (2) respondents' behavior habits (activity time, activity formthe greening . In addition, the characteristics of the ground are an important factor that affect the thermal comfort of residents . In a humid and hot climate, the research of Kwan et al. ,Guo et al. , and Song et al. found that the temperature of an impermeable surface was higher than the temperature of a permeable surface, and preferred activity venue)a natural lower pad surface had a better cooling effect. In mild climates, Santamouris et al.
2.3. Research framework
T showe research frameworkd that materials with high reflflectivity could signifificantly affect the thermal comfort of thise human body, but the study is shown in this Figure : (1) The of Taleghani et al. [30] showed that both the Tmrt and PET increased with increasing reflflectivity. Based on the above literature review, we found that the impact of landscape elements model of the residential area was grouped with the orthogonal design method to determine the experimental scheme. (2) ENVI-met, a three-dimensionalon the regional thermal environment in different climatic zones has been studied many times before, and that their research results were also different from each other, but studies of the synergy mechanism between various landscape elements are still relatively lacking. Each city is in a specifific regional atmospheric environment, and the differences in urban microcclimate simulation software jointly developaffect the mechanism of improvement of landscape elements for the outdoor thermal environment. China’s Tibet region is affected by Michael Bruse and Heriberfleet of Bochum University in Germany, was used for numerical simulation. This study used ENVI-met version v4.4.3 for the calculation to study the influence degits special geographical location, climatic conditions, and religious culture. The impact of landscape elements on the thermal environment is different from those of other climatic zones. Local residents carry out a large number of outdoor activities every day, and frequent and long-term outdoor activities put forward higher requirements for the outdoor environment. However, there are relatively few studies on high-altitude cold climate zones, and it is diffificult to provide theoretical support for improving the quality of the living environment in extremely cold climates.
Therefore and the, in this study, in order of differentto better understand the impact of residential landscape elements and their interaction with on the outdoor thermal environment and thermal comfort in a high-altitude cold climate area, taking Lhasa as an example, the thermal environment inof a residential areas. (3) The experiment optimization scheme with the collaborative action of landscape elements in a residential area was determined by taking the PET as the test index, and finally, the optimal design strategy was put forward with different landscape element confifigurations was numerically simulated based on the orthogonal experimental design method. The PET was taken as the optimization objective, and the simulation results were analyzed with intuitive analysis and variance analysis.
