• A review of assessment methods for the urban environment and its energy sustainability to guarantee climate adaptation of future cities (2019, background): “microclimates [131], one of them is the use of biometeorological indices (see Table 2), allowing the quantification of thermal comfort as well as heat [132].”
• Escalating global exposure to compound heat-humidity extremes with warming (2020, background): “While a large array of heat indices have been developed to account for the effects of both temperature and humidity [20, 21], wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) is one of the most widely used.”
