The subject of this thesis is the urban microclimate in cities of the Brazilian Continental Tropical Region.According to the principle that there is a correlation between urban microclimates and urban occupation, the objective is to numerically measure the correlation between air temperature and variables which are familiar to urban planning strategies.These variables can be controlled by municipal regulations, aiming to guide the procedures to ameliorate the urban harsh climate in that region.Qualitative and quantitative descriptions of the urban variables are made, as air temperature and humidity measurements registered along the day for the two main seasons.The results show that with variables related to building density, the correlation was positive when referred to air temperature, and reflected the greater influence of building density at night, what is in accord with the existing theory.On the other hand, using trees and water, the correlation was negative, when related to air temperature, in all periods.At the end, this work suggests an index using urban variables, aiming to support future studies in determining the ideal proportion among building density, trees and water in urban environments
