Baldwin quoted in EOS article on "stickiness"

AirUCI faculty Jane Baldwin is quoted in an EOS article on a new metric to measure the effects of heat and humidity on human health.  The U.S. National Weather Service’s Wet Bulb Globe Temperature is used to determine safety levels for people working in direct sunlight, but a new study includes "stickiness" as an important factor in determining the physiological effects of extreme heat.  “I think stickiness will help us in the long run understand how equivalent levels of wet-bulb temperature might lead to different pathways of adverse health outcomes,” Jane said.  Read the article
