| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
District scale meteorological model and human heat balance model were combined to evaluate impact of vegetation and radiative environment of the district and human characteristics on the health of pedestrians. Questionnaire survey on people’s thermal sensation with various people showed that thermal sensation did not depend on fatness whereas clothes for commutation raised feeling of hotness, and there is the difference among age groups. Analysis using combination of human heat balance, district scale and mesoscale meteorological models quantitatively showed the impact of meteorological condition with various scale and clothes of the people. Analysis of emergency hospitalization data showed that quantitative evaluation of risk with using DALY is useful to evaluate the health impact at relatively low temperature range.
