The extreme heat that baked parts of Southeast Asia last month was largely driven by human-induced\nclimate change, according to analysis from a team of scientists.\nTemperatures that soared beyond 40C (104F) from India and Bangladesh to Thailand and Laos were at\nleast 2C hotter than they...
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2 (Xinhua) -- By the end of this century, summer heat waves could exceed the upper limit of human survivability at "a few locations" in South Asia, a region of deep poverty where one-fifth of the world's people live, a new study said Wednesday. The most affected re...

Southeast Asia, highly susceptible to the detrimental impacts of extreme heat, faces significant challenges [29]. The increase in heatwave amplitude has shown a linear growth in relation to global warming levels, with distinct regional differences between the Maritime Continent and the Indochina Peninsu...
