Abstract
This research dealt with climatic elements and their impact on crime in Al-Muthanna Governorate for the years (2022, 2023), as climatic elements and their relationship to bioclimatic comfort in the study area were studied, as well as studying some crimes in the study area represented by (premeditated murder, suicide, attempted murder, intentional injury and assault, habitual theft, car theft, fraud, crimes affecting the family). It was found that climatic elements have a large and clear role in influencing bioclimatic comfort, which contributed to the spread of these crimes for most months of the year. By comparing the number of crimes in four months (January, April, July, and October) during the two study years as models of the seasons (winter, spring, summer, and autumn), it became clear that climatic conditions have an impact on the mood and emotions of individuals, which reduces the bioclimatic comfort of the population and thus increases the possibility of conflicts and tensions that in some cases lead to the commission of various crimes.
