The general objective of this research was to analyze the spatial distribution of air temperature in the urban area of Tupanciretã / RS, under tropical domains. In order to carry out this on-site climate research, it was necessary to perform fieldwork with the execution of the mobile transect methodology. The air temperature was measured at 3:00 p.m. A map of spatial variation of air temperature recorded in the urban environment was made and synoptic charts, satellite images and data from INMET's official network of meteorological stations were used to identify atmospheric systems and comparisons with the data and their magnitude. After climatic and cartographic analysis, it was observed that the thermal variations in this primary research, occurred with medium magnitude, registering differences of up to 3 ° C between the city's districts and compared to the rural area, which led to a reduction of up to 50% in the highest temperatures recorded in the central part of the city. Also, for this city, the orientation of slopes and the presence of water bodies was fundamental for the spatial differentiation of the temperature in comparison to the peripheral areas of low income, central and commercial.
