Abstract The primary objective of the study was determination spatial and multiannual variability occurrence days with very strong extreme cold stress in Poland according to Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI), as well baric conditions favouring their occurrence. based on data from years 1966/67 2018/19 Institute Meteorology Water Management – National Research Centre for Environmental Predi...

Background Thermal component of the atmospheric environment is an important issue which is related to human's health. Thermal environment includes both heat exchange conditions (stress) and the physiological response (strain). The aim of this study was to measure the association of heat indices (PSI, HSI, Humidex) especially subjective one (STI) with some physiological parameters (Blood pressur...

In order to measure the effect on the attention of teenagers of thermal discomfort due to high temperature and humidity, two experiments were conducted in two different indoor conditions of temperature and humidity in non-air-conditioned classrooms. The participants were a heterogeneous group of 117 teenagers, aged 12 to 18 years, and the experiments reproduced the actual conditions of teaching...

The spatial and temporal differences of climate, urban heat island and future conditions were assessed for Stuttgart, a city located in complex topography in Southwest Germany. The present and future urban climate conditions were analysed using hourly measured data from 2000 to 2011 of 5 measuring stations and data from regional climate simulations. The urban heat island intensity was quantifie...

This work on outdoor thermal comfort tends to highlight and affirm the contribution of vegetation in a climatically hostile environment by being very hot dry, this effect creating more forgiving microclimate terms atmosphere was highlighted simulations situ measurements, semi-open public space with set mature ficus retusa trees that we cut later, way, it gives us an unexpected important opportu...

Outdoor spaces play important roles in daily lives, and the use of these spaces is determined largely by outdoor thermal comfort. Few studies have been conducted on outdoor thermal comfort in northern China. Using microclimatic monitoring and subject interviews at a park in Tianjin, China, this investigation studied outdoor thermal comfort under different climate conditions. Although outdoor th...
