To fully address the multi-faceted challenges of urban heat, it is paramount that humans are
placed at the center of the agenda. This is manifested in a recent shift in urban heat studies …

Occupational heat exposure is linked to the development of kidney injury and disease in
individuals who frequently perform physically demanding work in the heat. For instance, in …

The measurement of core body temperature is an efficient method for monitoring heat stress
amongst workers in hot conditions. However, invasive measurement of core body …

Non-invasive, multi-parameter methods to estimate core body temperature offer several
advantages for monitoring thermal strain, although further work is required to identify the …

Aim The purpose of this study was to determine gender differences in skin temperature (T
