Impact of extreme temperatures on ambulance dispatches in London, UK.

Environmental Research, 2020
BACKGROUND Associations between extreme temperatures and health outcomes, such as mortality and morbidity, are often observed. However, relatively little research has investigated the role of extreme temperatures upon ambulance dispatches.

Extremes of Temperature

1977
For many years excess heat has been recognized as a powerful inhibitor of normal cellular proliferation in such widely differing systems as the testes and cell cultures. Also it has been recognized as an agent which can cause heavy mortality in preimplantation embryos.

Temperature extremes in Durham

2022
Abstract This chapter examines Durham’s extremes of air and grass temperature, considering the earliest and latest dates in the year for various threshold temperatures, the hottest and coldest days, nights and months on record in almost 180 years, and prolonged heatwaves and cold spells.

Extremes of Temperature

2017
This chapter covers extremes of temperature conditions, physiological effects, and prevention. All deaths caused by exposure to hot and cold temperature extremes are preventable when proper measures are taken. Described in this chapter are the effects of extreme heat and extreme cold on the health of members of the public, particularly older people and

Population health effects and health-related costs of extreme temperatures: Comprehensive evidence from Germany

Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 2018
This study assesses the short and medium-term impact of extreme temperatures on population health and health-related costs in Germany. For 1999 to 2008, we link the universe of 170 million hospital admissions and all 8 million deaths with weather and ...

Experimental investigation of thermomechanical behaviour of clay-rich sandstone at extreme temperatures followed by cooling treatments

International Journal of Rock Mechanics And Mining Sciences, 2018
The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of extreme temperatures (from 25° to 1000°C) followed by two cooling methods (both rapid and slow) on the mechanical behaviour of clay-rich Hawkesbury sandstone under uniaxial conditions.

Mechanical properties of carbon nanotube fibers at extreme temperatures.

Nanoscale, 2019
Carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers are strong, flexible, and multifunctional, which makes them promising candidates for use at extreme temperatures. However, the current reported mechanical properties of CNT fibers were commonly obtained at room temperature ...

Calculating extreme surface temperatures

Building Research and Practice, 1974
Professor Hoglund, of the Division of Building Technology, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, submits a theoretical method of calculating extreme temperatures on the outer surfaces of buildings under non-stationary conditions, taking into account both heat tansfer by convection and exchange of short-wave and long-wave radiation with the ...
