| 英文摘要 | Extreme -heat research has largely focused on dry heat, while humid heat, which presents a major societal impact, especially on human health, remains relatively understudied. Previous studies have revealed that a wet -bulb temperature (TW) of 35 degrees C marks our upper physiological limit, and much lower values also have serious health impacts. Our evaluations from observations showed that the daily maximum TW values over China have been scarcely reported above 35 degrees C, but humid -heat extreme days of TW above 30 degrees C have been reported each year during the past four decades, being mainly centered over the highly populated regions, including East China, South China, and the Sichuan basin. Further analyses indicated that the recent rapid urbanization process in China has amplified the societal impacts of humid -heat extremes, and land exposure to humid heat over urban regions is expected to increase at a faster rate than other regions of China. This suggests increasing risks of humid -heat extremes on human health in big cities of densely populated regions due to rapid urbanization. As indicated here, the population of China has become increasingly exposed to such extremes, with a strong increasing tendency of about 3100 persons per day per year since 2000. |
