A fourth-grade student attends an online class at her home in Quezon City, the Philippines, April 5, 2024. Sweltering weather has forced 3,954 schools across the Philippines to implement alternative delivery modes of learning to protect the students from the high heat index, the government said...

Values of \({Nu}_{\text{avg}}\) and KE increases with the increase in the Power law index from \(0.6\text{ to }1.4\) It has been observed that the Circular heated obstacle had the highest values of \({Nu}_{\text{avg}}\) and KE as compared to the triangular or square heated...
(32.4%) cities had high heat vulnerability index values. Seven of these cities are found in Metro Manila, whereas the rest are distributed across the country. The vulnerability index values of the cities depended on the relative weights of sensitivity and capacity (Supplementary Tables2 and 3) ...

This onset index can represent not only the sudden establishment of the tropical southwesterly monsoon over the SCS, but also the outbreak of the rainy season in the central-northern SCS. A common way to describe the west-east movement of the PSH is based on the longitude of the west end...
Thus, the inherent flexibility of the WBGT, which allows to account for heat stress for either indoors or outdoors with a single index, entail an important advantage. Climate data For the analysis of past heatwave events, we used ERA5-Land reanalysis data61, which provides hourly estimates of...
We project the internal HGT500 anomalies (0°–90°N, 0–360°) of August 2022 onto the internal HGT500 during 1960–2022 to obtain a circulation projection index (CPI) indicative of a 2022-like internal circulation pattern (Supplementary Fig. 2a). Further regression of CPI on internal ...
Beat the heat: Heat health action plan in India More extreme and frequent heat waves are associated with global changes in climate change. One of the largest single climate change events causing mass mortality was the European heat wave of August 2003 which is known to have caused the deaths...
