dc.titleHuman Discomfort Due to Environmental Conditions in Urban Thessaloniki, Greece. Part Ii. Thermal Stress Levelsen
heal.abstractTaking into consideration the heavily stressed air quality conditions in the city of Thessaloniki, Greece, an attempt was made to study the temporal fluctuations in heat wave occurrence and intensity during the summer period (June, July and August) for the years 1970-2005. The results demonstrate a continuous warming trend as well as the increase of the frequency of hot days and heat wave episodes. The discomfort conditions were estimated by using several thermal stress indices (TSI) based on long-term meteorological data in the center of Thessaloniki. The results for the physiological indices indicate a high thermal stress on people, during the heat waves. Combined with the air pollution effects, the stress on humans due to environmental conditions has been very harmful to public health.en
