Regional Projections of Extreme Apparent Temperature Days in Africa and the Related Potential Risk to Human Health

Regional climate modelling was used to produce high resolution climate projections for Africa, under a “business as usual scenario”, that were translated into potential health impacts utilizing a heat index that relates apparent temperature to health impacts. The continent is projected to see increa...
