Abstract Several studies evidenced the importance of knowledge bioclimatic comfort for improving people’s quality life. Temperature and relative humidity are main variables related to climatic comfort/discomfort, influencing environmental stress in human body. In this study, a stochastic approach is proposed characterizing conditions through Humidex values six sites Calabria (southern Italy), region often hit by heat waves summer months. The essential, because available time series...
Knowledge of bioclimatic comfort is paramount for improving people’s quality life. To this purpose, several studies related to climatic comfort/discomfort have been recently published. These mainly focus on the analysis temperature and relative humidity, i.e., main variables influencing environmental stress in human body. In context, present work aims analyze number visits hospital emergency department made by inhabitants Crati River valley (Calabria region, southern Italy) during heat waves...
Abstract. Since June 2008, 1-h temperature forecasts for the Calabria region (Southern Italy) are issued at 2.5 km horizontal resolution CRATI/ISAC-CNR. Forecasts available online http://meteo.crati.it/previsioni.html (every 6-h). This paper shows forecast performance out to three days one climatological year (from 1 December 2008 30 November 2009, 365 run) minimum, mean and maximum temperature. The is evaluated against gridded analyses same resolution. Gridded analysis based on Optimal...
