The Relationship between the Heat Disorder Incidence Rate and Heat Stress Indices at Yamanashi Prefecture in Japan

Figure 5

The relationship between heat disorder incidence rate and the daily maximum WBGT using class interval width of heat stress indices in each region that was derived from the simple linear regression analysis between air temperature at daily maximum WBGT and daily maximum WBGT. The heat disorder incidence rate means the frequency of heat disorder per 100,000 individuals per day. The lines are the exponential regression lines. Abbreviations are the same as those in Figure 1.
