Progress in extreme heat management and warning systems: A systematic review of heat-health action plans (1995-2020)
Rajashree Kotharkar,Aveek Ghosh +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conduct a systematic review to critically assess the advent and development of heat-health action plans (HHAPs) with a special focus on its integration with urban planning policies and show that implementation of core elements of HHAPs varies significantly in the areas of long-term urban planning, real-time surveillance, monitoring and evaluation.

Quantification of summertime thermal stress and PET range in a tropical Indian city
TL;DR: This study evaluates thermal stress benchmarks in Nagpur, India, using objective (PET) and subjective measurements, finding neutral PET at 29.29 °C and thermal acceptability range of 24.61–34.52 °C, with implications for sustainable city planning.
