A framework for adaptation of Australian households to heat waves [PDF]
, 2013 Climate change is leading to an increased frequency and severity of heat waves. Spells of several consecutive days of unusually high temperatures have led to increased mortality rates for the more vulnerable in the community. The problem is compounded by

Heat exposure and socio-economic vulnerability as synergistic factors in heat-wave-related mortality
, 2009 International audienceHeat waves may become a serious threat to the health and safety of people who currently live in temperate climates. It was therefore of interest to investigate whether more deprived populations are more vulnerable to heat waves.
