Extreme heat adversely affects human health, productivity, and well-being, with more frequent and intense heatwaves projected to increase exposures. However, current risk projections oversimplify critical inter-individual factors of human thermoregulation, resulting in unreliable and unrealistic estimates of future adverse health outcomes.
极端高温会对人类健康、生产力和幸福感产生不利影响,预计更频繁和更强烈的热浪将增加暴露风险。然而,目前的风险预测过于简化了人类体温调节的关键个体间因素,导致对未来不良健康结果的估计不可靠和不切实际。
