Abstract

Human comfort and public health condition have directly depended on the meteorological conditions including temperature, sunlight and RELATIVE HUMIDITY. The APPARENT TEMPERATURE index has recently been introduced as a measure for evaluating the combined effects of temperature and RELATIVE HUMIDITY on human comfort. In this study the maximum and the average values of this index was determined in four Iranian cities comprising SHIRAZ, BANDAR ABBAS, BIRJAND and ARDEBIL in daily and monthly scales. It has shown that, due to simultaneous increase of temperature and RELATIVE HUMIDITY in BANDAR ABBAS, APPARENT TEMPERATURE was significantly higher than the MEASURED TEMPERATURE. During summer the residents of this city are, therefore, subjected to intense heat stress and its associated bad effects. Due to the low values of RELATIVE HUMIDITY in SHIRAZ and BIRJAND the calculated APPARENT TEMPERATURE of these cities was found to be lower than measured values by thermometer. The given results have indicated that, for some days of June and July the risk of heatstroke, sunstroke and muscle contraction are serious for BANDAR ABBAS, SHIRAZ and BIRJAND, respectively. The values of daily maximum APPARENT TEMPERATURE revealed that for some circumstances people's health is seriously at risk due to high temperatures between 13:00 and 15:00 afternoons.
