The compactness of the urban built environment significantly affects land surface temperature (LST), especially during heat waves (HW). However, the mechanisms by which the configuration of key building patches in built environments of varying compactness drives LST are unclear. This study proposes a...

But it really hasn't been studied very much. One of the reasons for that is the main focus of the studies has been on mortality from heat waves, and there hasn't been that much focus on morbidity. That would take looking at people who are hospitalized from heat exhaustion or heat strok...

The extreme heat in the Portland has melted power cables in the streetcar system, which caused the agency to cancel streetcar service today & tomorrow. We have a climate crisis fueling cascading health, power, and transportation crises. It's time to do something. h/t@dburbachhttps://t.co/...
Heat waves occur when the high pressure from the atmosphere pushes warm air down toward the earth. This stationary air mass hovers over a region, trapping more hot air and forcing other weather systems to redirect their course. It produces a mass accumulation of heat and often high humidity, ...
This is how to do heatless waves and curls at home depending on your hair type. If you have kinky curly hair, doa twist out with wet hair. If you have straight hair, use sponge rollers or socks to air dry hair into sleek waves. If you have curly hair, sc
