Internationally comparative studies of individual adaptation [108, 109] suggest protective behaviours to improve resilience to cold, such as clothing and central heating, are more common in colder regions. Changes in such behaviours over time in the UK may have contrib- uted to reductions in cold ...
The causes of heat stress include wearing heavy clothing physical work or exercise hot weather or high humidity (湿度) . Untreated heat stress can lead to a more serious problem called heat exhaustion. A person suffering from heat exhaustion loses too much water through perspiration (流汗) .The...

(for example, clothing, underlying health), access to medical treatment for temperature-related morbidity and planned interventions to reduce exposures or medical vulnerability during extreme temperature events (for example, improved building design, public heating/cooling centers, emergency warning systems)...
