Emerging hotspots of thermal stress in the Ganga River Basin under climate change using the Universal Thermal Climate Index 1991 to 2024

open access: yes
Abstract The assessment of human thermal stress under changing climatic conditions has gained increasing attention in recent decades, particularly in densely populated regions. This study examines the spatio-temporal variability and long-term trends in thermal stress across the Ganga River Basin using the Universal Thermal Climate Index

An upgraded neural network-based operational procedure for the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) 

open access: yes
Extreme temperatures are the leading cause of climate-related mortality worldwide. To inform mitigation and adaptation strategies, it is crucial to have accurate feels-like temperature measures that quantify thermal stress on human physiology. The Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) is among the most widely used feels-like temperature metrics in ...
