Climate suitability assessment on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Climate is an important factor that affects livability, but the climate comfort model used for low altitudes is not applicable to high altitudes, and further study on climate suitability in high-altitude areas is needed. In response to the absence of high-altitude characteristics in the current climate comfort assessment methods, this study adds oxygen
