Variability of the UTCI index in Serbia [PDF]

, 2018
The main task of this paper is the assessment of bioclimatic conditions in Serbia. A special emphasis have been given to the heat budget bioclimatic Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) whose purpose is to evaluate degree of thermal stress that human body is exposed to.

Comparative Analysis of Future Urban Thermal Comfort in Three Cities Considering Urbanization Under Multiple CMIP6 Scenarios

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract This work investigates variations in thermal conditions in cities with different background climates exposed to climate change and future urbanization (i.e., horizontal/vertical urban expansion and energy consumption change). Simultaneously considering projected urbanization from the present to the 2050s, characterized by spatial changes in ...

Divergent Heat Assessments Across Thermal Stress and Sensation Metrics

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract A large and growing body of literature has indicated potential inconsistencies in heat assessments due to the use of different heat stress indices (HSI). This divergence hinders the emergence of scientific consensus and impairs the development of public policy on a range of topics, including climate change impacts, public health guidance, and ...

Summer variation of the UTCI index and Heat Waves in Serbia [PDF]

, 2019
Abstract. The objective of this paper is the assessment of bioclimatic conditions in Sebia. A special emphasis has been given to the heat budget bioclimatic Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) whose purpose is to evaluate degree of thermal stress that human body is exposed to during the last twenty years. In addition, the thresholds of daily maximum

Thermal conditions during heat waves of a mid-European metropolis under consideration of climate change, urban development scenarios and resilience measures for the mid‑21st century

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2021
In this study we produce two urban development scenarios estimating potential urban sprawl and optimized development concerning building construction, and we simulate their influence on air temperature, surface temperatures and human thermal comfort.

Multi‐Country‐Multi‐City Characterisation of Heat Stress and Exposure in Africa

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 8, 30 June 2026.
This study provides the first continent‐wide, grid‐specific assessment of heat stress trends in Africa, revealing a sharp rise in multi‐scale extreme heat episodes and shifting population exposure. Findings highlight urgent implications for urban planning and climate adaptation.
