Background: In the context of climate change, an efficient alert system to prevent the risk associated with summer heat is necessary. The authors' objective was to describe the temperature-mortality relationship in France over a 29-year period and to define and validate a combination of temperature factors enabling optimum prediction of the daily fluctuations in summer mortality. Methods: The s...

because of the scarcity of in situ measurements, estimation of soil temperature by other means is very indispensable, as for irrigation management and scheduling when in different field conditions. so far, many regression models have been developed for an estimation of soil temperature, using meteorological data under bare soil. throughout this study, the performance of coup simulation model an...

introductionclimate change has played an important role in all aspects of human life. therefore, climatepredictions in atmospheric general circulation models (gcm) will have particular importance.in this study, downscaling by a1b scenarios, ipcm4 and bcm2 of atmosphere generalcirculation models in lars-wg model are used for analysis of climate change impacts onmaximum and minimum temperature, s...

. introduction global warming and its result, climate change is an important subject investigated especially in the recent decades by researchers throughout the world. in these studies, at first, climatic parameters changes are investigated. considering many uncertainties in the parameters estimation, it is better to choose a method in order to study and analyze the uncertainty band due to diff...

Weather condition is one of the much effective factors in the principle of architecture and urbanization. So in this research long-term trend of effective climate elements in architecture of Darab city including mean of minimum temperature, temperature mean, mean of maximum temperature, minimum relative humidity, maximum relative humidity, relative humidity mean, wind speed and sun hours in mon...

the paper presents results of experimental studies on the methane and propane ignition process in various volumetric compositions of oxidizers heated to temperatures higher than ignition point of analyzed fuels (htac conditions–high temperature air combustion conditions). the increment of temperature dt and the ignition delay time tig are parameters characterizing the process of ignition under ...

introductionit is expected that projected changes in the frequency and severity of extreme climate events, such as increased frequency of heat stress, droughts and flooding will have significant consequences on water resources. increasing pressure on water resources due to climatic and anthropogenic changes as well as increasing competition among users is recognized challenges worldwide. global...
