Abstract: Although many studies have examined the correlation between temperature and mortality from cardiovascular diseases (CVD), other meteorological factors, such as relative humidity, may modify the relationship. Yet the studies on this aspect are relatively few.…

Abstract: Abstract Heat stress occupational exposure limits (OELs) were developed in the 1970s to prevent heat-related illnesses (HRIs). The OELs define the maximum safe wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) for a given physical activity level. This…

Abstract: A unique wet-bulb temperature of 35 °C is often used as the threshold for human survivability, but recent experiments have shown that a person's core temperature starts to rise at a wide range of critical…

Abstract: The wet-bulb temperature and wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) have been widely used to forecast the physiological consequences of extreme heat associated with climate change. Unfortunately, those metrics are not based in any physiological model of…
