Climate change is exacerbating the need for urban greening and the associated environmental and human well-being benefits. Trees can help mitigate urban heat, but more detailed understanding of cooling effects of green infrastructure are needed to guide management decisions and deploy trees as effective...
In contrast to sound or light waves, thermal waves are lossy; consequently, it is difficult to interpret measured 2D temperature fields. Most AT evaluation methods are based on 1D approaches, and measured 3D heat fluxes are frequently not considered, which is why edges, small features, or ...
Specific heat capacity of the nanofluids is generally measured by the differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). In this method, the reference material (generally water) and the sample material temperature rise is measured due to heating and the sample heat capacity is determined. The majority of the...
. While generally an increase in the adoption of evidence-based HA is seen chronologically from 2015 onwards, universal adoption is not seen. HA adoption is lowest in those who live/train in cold/temperate environments with cost and access to facilities/equipment being the most commonly reported ...
A method of testing heat insulation shaped bodies for purposes of evaluation wherein a shaped heat insulation body is placed in a measuring space where the initial temperature of the heat insulation body is measured under ambient conditions prior to heating. The shaped heat insulation body is then...
While SST can be measured in both infrared and microwave regions, the near-surface wind speed can only be retrieved in the microwave region. The reason is that the emissivity of the ocean’s surface at wavelengths of around 11 μm is so high that it is not sensitive to changes in the ...
prove more difficult in sheep, typically lacking a comparable tail. Therefore, it is likely that the stability of rectal probes and ability to keep them stationary, as well as expulsion and faecal temperature during defecation, will limit the collection of accurate temperature data in sheep [14,...
Our preliminary results indicate that the use of the energy ofaaarea, derived from PPG signals measured from emergency responders in tropical conditions, is promising in determining the heat stress level using 20-s recordings. After examining 14 time domain features using leave-one-out cross-...
The data is structured on a regular grid, where each data point is associated with a precise latitude and longitude coordinate. The ERA5 temperature data is accessible at various pressure levels as well as at the surface level, usually measured in °C. The ERA5 temperature data at a height...
Usually, the conditioning of the air is not complete in the upper respiratory tract and is thus still taking place in the first generations of the lungs4,13,14. McFadden et al. have measured that, when a human adult breathes at rest in a room with an air at a temperature of 27 °C...
