Projected Impact of Increased Global Warming on Heat Stress and Exposed Population Over Africa

Abstract This study investigates the impact of increased global warming on heat stress changes and the potential number of people exposed to heat risks over Africa. For this purpose a heat index has been computed based on an ensemble‐mean of high‐resolution regional climate model simulations from th...
