Abstract

This study analyzes the presence of green areas and their implications for the microclimate in the Buenos Aires neighborhood, located in the northern zone of Teresina, with a focus on Duque de Caxias Park. It addresses the issue of how these areas influence local climatic conditions and the population's perception of them. The general objective is to analyze the importance of green areas in the neighborhood and their impact on the microclimate. Specifically, the study aims to discuss concepts related to urban climate, identify urban forestry projects carried out in Teresina, and understand residents' perceptions of these areas over the past five years. The research is applied in nature, with a qualitative approach and a phenomenological basis, using questionnaires administered to 50 residents, along with field observations. The results indicate that Duque de Caxias Park significantly contributes to thermal comfort and local well-being, being recognized as a space for leisure and community belonging, although it presents structural deficiencies that compromise its full environmental potential.
