Methods to Estimate Acclimatization to Urban Heat Island Effects on Heat- and Cold-Related Mortality

BACKGROUND: Investigators have examined whether heat mortality risk is increased in neighborhoods subject to the urban heat island (UHI) effect but have not identified degrees of difference in susceptibility to heat and cold between cool and hot areas, which we call acclimatization to the UHI.
