Seasonal Temperature Variability and Mortality in the Medicare Population

James P. Healy et al.

Summary: This study examined the association between seasonal temperature variability and mortality in the United States and found that increased temperature variability in the warm and cold seasons was significantly associated with increased mortality rates. The effect of temperature variability was more pronounced than that of seasonal mean temperatures. The study also identified that factors such as race and population density modified this association.

Trends of temperature variability: Which variability and what health implications?

Fang Guo et al.

Summary: Most climate change studies focus on changes in mean climate, while studies on temperature variability are comparatively limited. Short-term temperature variability is decreasing while long-term variability is increasing. Future research should consider the impact of different timescales on trend analysis and health impact studies.

The burden of heat-related mortality attributable to recent human-induced climate change

A. M. Vicedo-Cabrera et al.

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.
