Social Sensing of Heatwaves. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Heatwaves cause thousands of deaths every year, yet the social impacts of heat are poorly measured. Temperature alone is not sufficient to measure impacts and "heatwaves" are defined differently in different cities/countries.

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

From Physiology to Bioheat Simulation: A Data‐Driven Framework for Core Temperature Initialization

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate initialization of core body temperature is a critical yet often overlooked component of bioheat transfer models, particularly when such models are applied to heterogeneous populations and real‐world environmental conditions. Conventional bioheat simulations typically rely on fixed or idealized core body temperature values derived from

Heatwaves identification classification and visualisation with python

open access: yes, 2022
This code can detect, classify, and visualize heatwaves considering the thresholds based on percentiles of daily mean temperature distribution over past years (Ouzeau et al., 2016). Here, we develop the code by Machard et al.
