2024年12月18日 · Sufficiently high combinations of air temperature and humidity (levels of ‘humid heat’) can be lethal to humans. Most heat-related mortality occurs in older adults and those …

2021年7月5日 · Humid heat means the air is hot and moist, typically with a temperature at or above 90 °F and a relative humidity of 30% or more. Humid heat generally occurs east of the …

2024年5月17日 · Dry heat refers to outdoor conditions in areas with high temperatures and low humidity. It generally occurs in hot desert climates that receive little precipitation. The absence …

2022年8月3日 · What is humid heat? Humid heat—the combination of high temperatures and humidity—is deceptively simple. But scientists and meteorologists use several different metrics …

2021年11月16日 · Extreme humid heat—the combination of high temperatures and specific humidity—is rapidly intensifying globally and poses a threat to societies in multiple climate …

2020年12月11日 · Humid heat events show intensifications to dry heat events with higher frequency, duration, and intensity, driven by the lower variability of TW than T. In the mid–high …

2017年8月7日 · Here, we quantify humid heat wave hazard in the recent past and at different levels of global warming. We find that the magnitude and apparent temperature peak of heat …

2024年8月26日 · Humid heat waves pose significant risks to human health and the ecosystem. Intuitively, rainfall often alleviates extreme humid heat. However, here we show that light rain …

2024年1月19日 · Humid heat stress is an underestimated threat to the one billion people living in urban informal settlements without effective adaptation strategies. Expanded climate …

2024年7月29日 · Physiologists have found strong evidence that humidity matters: at a given temperature, more humidity makes it harder for the body to maintain a safe core temperature …
