In the city of Hermosillo, Sonora in the past decades, land use, urban surface, population density, vehicular traffic and population activities have been modified, generating changes in urban climatology, resulting in the phenomenon called Urban Heat Island (UHI), which deteriorates environmental conditions and urban habitability, especially in vulnerable communities with a hot dry climate (Ruiz, Correa, & Cantón, 2012). Thus, knowing the location and morphology of the UHI is relevant in terms of urban planning, as a design tool for its analysis and mitigation and to increase the resilience of the city against the effects of climate change. The purpose of this paper is to identify the causes that lead to the formation of this phenomenon, such as the replacement of natural for artificial surfaces, the choice of materials in the urban environment and their geometry, and the increase in anthropogenic heat generated by vehicular traffic and the high demand for air conditioning systems due to the high temperatures characteristic of the hot dry climate. Also to present the effects to the population that intervene in the formation of ICU in the urban area of Hermosillo, in relation to the deterioration of the environment and health, that allow propose and validate the use of mitigation strategies.Metrics
