Adaptive Comfort Potential in Different Climate Zones of Ecuador Considering Global Warming

Ecuador is a country with several climate zones. However, their behaviour is similar throughout the year, with no peaks of extreme temperatures in the various seasons. This paper is a first approach to study the adaptive comfort behaviour in several areas and populations of the country. Considering...
