Joint Session 7 Studies Involving Extreme Temperature Variability and Intensity Related to our Changing Change

Thursday, 14 January 2016: 1:30 PM-3:00 PM
Room 228/229 ( New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)
Hosts: (Joint between the Seventh Conference on Environment and Health; and the 28th Conference on Climate Variability and Change )
Chair:
Austin C. Stanforth, Indiana University, Indianapolis, IN

Research related to how the physical processes of climate variability and change are connected to changing patterns in heat and cold waves, and thus how we can better understand human health response to the increased variability and temperatures
