Conclusion Our findings suggest that the combined effect of heat wave and PM2.5 exposure during the 2nd trimester on the risk of preterm birth was greater than that of each exposure alone. In other words, exposure to PM2.5 increases the impact of heat waves on the risk of preterm birth. ...
Rising cost of living is not the only factor making public anger worse. Lander said that record temperatures this summer aren’t helping. “People tend to be angrier, tend to be more frustrated easily, tend to be more exhausted during periods of extreme heat,” he said.Black and Lander agr...
Older adults are highly vulnerable to the detriment of extreme weather. The rapid non-linear increase in heat-related morbidity is difficult to quantify, hindering the attribution of direct effects of exposure on severe health outcomes. We examine the ef
the inconsistent results regarding the effect of the tested heatwaves warrant further study and emphasise the complexity and unpredictability of warming effects in the natural biological communities. For this benthic fauna, from temperate
The impact of high temperatures on mortality is well known, but not all deaths that occur during heat waves can be explained by this effect. We evaluated whether an additional mechanism caused by periods of sustained heat without nightly cooling influenced mortality during the European heat wave in...
Mortality increased 5.04% (95% PI, 3.06—7.06%) during the first heat wave of the summer versus 2.65% (95% PI, 1.14-4.18%) during later heat waves, compared with non-heat wave days. Heat wave mortality impacts and effect modification by heat wave characteristics were more pronounced in ...
leading to an increase in the surface temperature64. Given the exponential increase of reaction rates when increasing the temperature (Arrhenius law), we first focused on investigating the impact of heat as the main channel to explain the enhanced activity and selectivity reported in the previous se...
In this paper,the Ohm effect of high power radio wave on the lower polar ionosphere was studied.Based on the heat balance function and continuity function,the modification of ionospheric electron temperature and density by high power radio wave was simulated by using IRI2000 and MSIS as a back...

The question of health effects of extremely low frequency (50/60 Hz) magnetic fields (ELFMF) has been widely discussed, but the mechanisms of interaction of these fields with biological systems for intensities relevant to human and animal exposure are
