PPT-Calculating heat stress index from routine weather station

Bruno Lemke Tord Kjellstrom Quantifying Climate Change Climate change will increase temperatures in most places around the world in the coming decades Temperatures in urban areas will go even higher due to the heat island effect In order to measure the effect of climate change on worker productivity a heat stress index that incorporates temperature humidity wind speed and solar radiation is needed . Marching Band Members. Introduction. Heat-related health problems can be serious. Even when all efforts are made to ensure safe conditions for activities, it’s not always possible to regulate temperature – or to predict individual reactions to heat.. Heat stress can harm or even kill people working under very hot conditions.To help employers and workers learn how to prevent heat stress, this guide summarizes the causes, symptoms, and treatment o Science w/ Ms. Hendryx. 3/27/12.
