This paper estimates the effects of humidity and temperature on mortality rates in the United States (c. 1973–2002) in order to provide an insight into the potential health impacts of climate change. I find that humidity, like temperature, is an important determinant of mortality. Coupled with...

It's said on sticky summer days: "It's not the heat, it's the humidity." That holds true in the winter too, and could hold the key to the future of snowpack and water resources in the American West. In a new study published today inProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, ...
Do you know about the climate change? 疫情阻挡了我们见面的脚步,但成长从不停止。 线上的学习如火如荼地开展,探究也从不停歇。 停课不停学,宅家探究,照样乐趣多多。 “气候变化”,与我们的生活息息相关, 了解我们所赖以生存的环...
Moreover, environmental regulation plays a moderating role between climate change and energy poverty. Specifically, economical environmental regulation has a negative moderating effect, while legal and supervised environmental regulations have positive moderating effects. Finally, the national basic energy ...
Warmer temperatures, increased humidity and rainfall associated with climate change could lead to more outbreaks. Lyme Disease Lyme disease is an infectious disease caused by bacteria. Generally, blacklegged ticks first need to feed on infected wild animals, such as birds and rodents, and then attac...
1. Extreme heat and humidity in India and other emerging markets Climate science predicts that India may become one of the first places to experience heat waves that cross the survivability threshold for a healthy human being resting in the shade. The alread...
Urban climate change refers to the changes in the physical environment of cities caused by urbanization, leading to increased temperatures and extreme heat events due to factors like high thermal mass from buildings and heat released from vehicles and air conditioners. ...
Forestation can be a valuable tool for mitigating climate change. Using an Earth System Model, Moustakis et al. show that ambitious deployment in the range of country pledges can mitigate global temperature under an overshoot pathway by 0.2 oC, but highlight the associated socioeconomic tradeof...
