climate change、air pollution
Climate change and air pollution are two intimately interlinked global concerns. The frequency, intensity, and duration of heat waves are projected to increase globally under future climate change. A growing body of evidence indicates that health risks associated with the joint exposure to heat waves and air pollution can be greater than that due to individual factors. However, the cooccurrences of heat and air pollution extremes in China remain less explored in the observational records. The ongoing upward trend in the joint occurrence of heat and air pollution extremes should be recognized as an emerging environmental issue in China, given the potentially larger compounding impact to public health.
