The current bioclimates of equatorial Western and tropical South Pacific have been assessed, using the concepts of effective temperature and relative strain as a basis for evaluating likely changes in human comfort regimes as a consequence of global warming. Current bioclimates may be considered marginally stressful for indigenous populations. Global warming will result in changes in the frequency, duration and intensity of physioclimatically stressful conditions.
利用有效温度和相对应变的概念，对赤道西太平洋和热带南太平洋当前的生物气候进行了评估，以此为基础来评估全球变暖可能导致的人类舒适状况的变化。当前的生物气候对当地居民来说可能勉强算是有压力的。全球变暖将导致生理气候压力状况的频率、持续时间和强度发生变化。
