How rising air plumes help spike moist heat
As climate change has led to more frequent extreme-heat events around the world, moist heat metrics such as wet-bulb temperature, which combines temperature and humidity, have become increasingly relevant. Days with both high heat and high humidity are dangerous to human health; understanding how th...

As climate change has led to more frequent extreme-heat events around the world, moist heat metrics such as wet-bulb temperature, which combines temperature and humidity, have become increasingly relevant. Days with both high heat and high humidity are dangerous to human health; understanding how these extreme events will change in the future is important.
