Spatial Estimation of Thermal Indices in Urban Areas—Basics of the SkyHelios Model
Atmosphere, 2018 Thermal perception and stress for humans can be best estimated based on appropriate indices. Sophisticated thermal indices, e.g., the Perceived Temperature (PT), the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI), or the Physiologically Equivalent Temperature ...

International Journal of ClimatologyABSTRACTEvaluating long‐term changes in thermal comfort can be useful for considering measures against thermal‐related health risks. In this study, spatio‐temporal changes in thermal comfort, using the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI), were calculated from observations at 140 weather stations across Japan for the 1980–2020 period.
