Sumario:In this paper, we set the research field for the study of urban microclimates in relation to current issues of sustainable urban development and in relation to neighbouring research fields. Indeed, for solutions in response to climate change, this research field needs to address its research objects (urban form, land use, green frame, human activities...) differently. Moreover, in a context of sustainable development, these objects are now considered as the intersection of multiple environmental, social and economic challenges. We explore the interaction between disciplines by focusing specifically on the case of the object of research that are the green frames. At first, we explain why the green frames are of interest for the urban microclimate sciences. It’s an opportunity to make an update on current knowledge of the climatic role of green frames and to sketch the climate research perspectives involved. These perspectives highlight the necessity is for researchers to have knowledge, methods and techniques from other disciplines. We explain some of the articulations with geomatics, plant biology, hydrology, etc. caused by this object of study. We also show how the knowledge produced by the urban micro-climatology can be useful in other areas.
