TODO: {{#todo:There is an overlap between this page and ERF of ambient temperature on mortality. These should be merged. I prefer the latter name.|Virpi Kollanus, Teemu Rintala|Intarese}}


Scope

Exposure-response relationship for short-term ambient heat exposure and mortality.

Dimensions and boundaries relevant for the variable

  • Cause of death
  • Country/other geographic area (differences in heat exposure/effects due to climate, physiological, cultural or behavioral factors)
  • Age of exposed population

Definition

Data
