One of the most important factors affecting ecological comfort of human beings is the wind effects. The most important aim of the study is to determine the relationship between design and ecological aspects of the wind. The city chosen for the research sample, mostly has a plain surface in its populated central areas. So, if the speed of wind and direction are processed in the right fashion, a better quality of life and a contribution to the urban ecology can be provided. It was investigated the importance of wind, which is one of the most vital elements of climate, in ecological planning of urban life. The other goal of the study is to find out landscape planning and design approaches according to wind effects. Moreover, the study put forth how building and green corridors contribute to human comfort. The study was realised in urban landscape scale in a District of Duzce city by focusing on urban landscape design. The study was made up of two main stages as field surveys and map analysis. Meteorological data and city maps (at the scale of master plan) were used as main data. Besides, it was aimed to put forth statistical meanings by using meteorological data. Consequently, the study explored how structural and vegetational elements change the function of wind and highlighted the outcomes that help to provide optimum wind conditions and comfort for people.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessdesignplanningurbanwindlandscapeArticle391699710Q4N/A
