Exposure of Vulnerable Populations to Heatwaves
Change in average annual heatwave exposure among infants under 1 year of age and adults aged 65 years and older, comparing 2006–2015 with the 1986–2005 baseline. Measures include the total change in heatwave person-days, calculated as the change in annual heatwave days relative to the baseline multiplied by the population of each vulnerable group, and the change in heatwave days per person, calculated by normalising the population-weighted change.
