Today, the impact of climate is considered on the life, health, comfort, activity and behavior in a form of the branch of science such as human biology. Due to difference of frequency people with each other, the sensibility of every one from weather can be different from the other one that's why the climate can’t be totally undesirable or the climate can be totally desirable for all the people, so we can say that all of climatic elements are affected on human comfort but the effect of some of them is quite cleared and the effect of the others is mild and sometimes invisible. The greatest effect on comfort and discomfort can be included temperature, humidity and solar radiation. The aim of this research is to investigate and determine the area risk of climatic comfort. For this purpose, the temperature, precipitation and humidity data have been extracted for Khuzestan province form Esfarazi database. In this approach, first different properties of the temperature, precipitation and humidity for the area with climatic discomfort have discussed based on the conditional probability distribution. This study has been identified the areas of climatic comfort in Khuestan province using multivariate analysis (Cluster analysis and Discriminant analysis) and spatial autocorrelation pattern (Hot Spot index and Moran index) with an emphasis on architecture. The results showed that the risk area of climate comfort is included mostly of the western parts of Khuzestan province namely the border areas with Iraq and some parts of southern of province .On the other hand ,trend analysis the range of this area to climatic discomfort indicated that it has increased significantly in recent periods .The results also showed that the local distribution of precipitation in all periods in the areas of climatic discomfort has been a high the coefficient of variations.
