Emergence of robust anthropogenic increase of heat stress-related variables projected from CORDEX-CORE climate simulations

Eun-Soon Im et al.

Summary: This study emphasizes the importance of understanding when and where region-specific patterns in both mean and extreme temperatures will lead to heat stress. The time of emergence (TOE) of temperature and wet-bulb temperature (Tw) varies significantly under different climate scenarios, with most regions in Africa and southeast Asia experiencing TOE in the early 21st century. Urgent adaptation strategies are needed in these regions to address the impact of climate change.

Summary: Current and future climate change is projected to have significant impacts on human health through increasing temperatures. A study found that approximately 37% of warm-season heat-related deaths can be attributed to anthropogenic climate change. Urgent mitigation and adaptation strategies are needed to minimize the public health impacts of climate change.
