Climate Change Effects on the Predicted Heat Strain and Labour Capacity of Outdoor Workers in Australia
Global heating is subjecting more of the planet to longer periods of higher heat stress categories commonly employed to determine safe work durations. This study compared predicted worker heat strain and labour capacity for a recent normal climate (1986-2005) and under commonly applied climate scenarios for the 2041-2080 period for selected Australian locations. Recently published heat indices for northern (Darwin, Townsville, and Tom Price) and …
Assembling a thermal rhythmanalysis
Rhythmanalysis, as developed by Lefebvre and Regulier, has provided theoretical and methodological inspiration for a growing diversity of work in geography. We focus on the energetic liveliness and agency of rhythm to engage with heat as an energetic form and heat stress as a threat to bodily health that is becoming intensified with climate change. We deploy the analytical vocabulary of rhythmanalysis to conceptualize and empirically trace how he…
Beyond Threshold Approaches to Extreme Heat
One of climate change’s most certain impacts is increasingly frequent and extreme heat. Heat management and climate adaptation policies generally utilize temperature and humidity thresholds to identify what constitute “extreme” conditions. In the workplace, such thresholds can be used to trigger reductions in work intensity and/or duration. In regions that routinely exceed proposed thresholds, however, this approach can be deeply problematic and …
Heat, health, and humidity in Australia's monsoon tropics
Exposure to heat has killed more people in Australia than all other natural hazards combined. As the climate warms, temperatures are projected to rise substantially, increasing the impact of heat stress and heat illness nation‐wide. The relation between heat and health is profoundly complex, however, and is understood differently across multiple sectors. This paper thus provides a critical review of how heat is currently measured and managed in A…
Towards Investigating Global Warming Impact on Human Health Using Derivatives of Photoplethysmogram Signals
Recent clinical studies show that the contour of the photoplethysmogram (PPG) wave contains valuable information for characterizing cardiovascular activity. However, analyzing the PPG wave contour is difficult; therefore, researchers have applied first or higher order derivatives to emphasize and conveniently quantify subtle changes in the filtered PPG contour. Our hypothesis is that analyzing the whole PPG recording rather than each PPG wave con…
