Systematic review Web of ScienceandGoogle Scholarwere used to find relevant peer-reviewed literature from 1950 to February 2016 for our analysis. In our searches, we used the keywords: sea surface temperature, extreme event, temperature anomaly, heatwave (and heat wave), and anomaly. Of the pote...
Total cloud cover (TCC) is also extracted, which impacts short-wave air-sea heat fluxes. For El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) climate phase, Niño-3.4 index is extracted from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Climate Prediction Center (NOAA 2019). Niño-3.4 is...
A household is allocated to the flood treat- ment group if at least one flood (as defined and recorded by the official sources mentioned above) occurred within a 1000-metre radius of its residence in a given 7-year interval prior to the Wave 4 and/or Wave 10 survey date. In our main...
Heat waves have been linked to increased risk of mortality and morbidity, and are projected to increase in frequency and intensity in a changing climate. Houston and other areas in Texas experienced an exceptional heat wave in the summer of 2011 producin
Recent heat wave events, like the eastern European/Russian heat-wave in 2010 (Barriopedro et al., 2011, Pappenberger et al., 2015), the summer heatwave ‘Lucifer’ in 2017 and the 2003 European heatwave with more than 70,000 victims (Robine et al., 2008), have highlighted the health-...
experience, however, that overheating in modern, highly-insulated houses was occurring as far back as the summer 2003 heat-wave, in a house built in 2001 (and probably therefore to the 1995 Building Regulations); and the BRE publication BR364 Solar shading of buildings itself dates back to ...
Commonly, a heat wave event is accompanied by local atmospheric anticyclonic anomalies, which makes more solar radiation reach the ground and induces adiabatic heating with the sinking movement, thus favoring the occurrence of HW, but the physical processes associated with the anomalous anticyclones are...
Less is known, however, about the heat mitigation effect of urban green spaces during heat wave conditions. Finally, differences in the intensity of the UHI were reported with different temporal aspects, such as when focussing on different time periods throughout the day17,22. For example, ...
