From: Attribution of mortality to the urban heat island during heatwaves in the West Midlands, UK
Estimated mortality based on health impact assessment for the heatwave of 2003, and for potentially similar heatwave events projected for 3 future decades, under a medium climate scenario. Dark blue bars (left) use population weighting and the ‘urban’ temperature simulations; light blue bars (middle) use the ‘urban’ temperature simulation but do not include population weighting, and light green bars (right) use the ‘rural’ temperature simulations
