The Impact of climate change on heat-related mortality in six major cities, South Korea, under representative concentration pathways (RCPs)

Background: We aimed to quantify the excess mortality associated with increased temperature due to climate change in six major Korean cities under Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) which are new emission scenarios designed for the fifth assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on...
