Synergies between local climate change, energy consumption of buildings and energy poverty, and health risks highlight the necessity to develop mitigation strategies to counterbalance overheating impacts. The studies presented here assess the underlying issues related to urban overheating. Further, the impacts of temperature extremes on the low-income population and increased morbidity and mortality have been discussed. The increasing intensity, duration, and frequency of heatwaves due to human-caused climate change is shown to affect underserved populations. Thus, housing policies on resident exposure to intra-urban heat have been assessed. Finally, opportunities to mitigate urban overheating have been proposed and discussed. 517 $aSurvivability under Overheating 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aair temperature 610 $aclimate change 610 $aclimate warming 610 $acluster analysis 610 $acoastal cities 610 $adiurnal temperature range 610 $adrought 610 $aenvironmental justice 610 $ahealth 610 $aheatwave 610 $alow-income population 610 $aMediterranean 610 $amitigation 610 $aredlining 610 $arelative risk 610 $aresilience 610 $asap flow 610 $asemi-arid 610 $asoil moisture 610 $astandardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) 610 $asubtropical desert climate 610 $asurvivability 610 $asynoptic conditions 610 $atime-series 610 $atranspiration cooling 610 $aurban heat island 610 $aurban heat islands 610 $aurban overheating 610 $awind speed and wind directions 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aSynnefa$b Afroditi$4edt$01321488 702 $aHaddad$b Shamila$4edt 702 $aRajagopalan$b Priya$4edt 702 $aSantamouris$b Matthaios$4edt 702 $aSynnefa$b Afroditi$4oth 702 $aHaddad$b Shamila$4oth 702 $aRajagopalan$b Priya$4oth 702 $aSantamouris$b Matthaios$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557295403321 996 $aSurvivability under Overheating$93034582 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01208nam0 22003373i 450 001 PUV1124791 005 20251003044317.0 010 $a1420065211 010 $a9781420065213 100 $a20130912d2008 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $aeng 102 $aus 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 183 1$6z01$anc$2RDAcarrier 200 1 $aIntroduction to probability with R$fKenneth Baclawski 210 $aBoca Raton [etc.]$cChapman & Hall/CRC$dc2008 215 $aXVI, 363 p.$d25 cm. 225 | $aChapman & Hall/CRC texts in statistical science series$v75 410 0$1001MIL0280405$12001 $aChapman & Hall/CRC texts in statistical science series$v75 606 $aProbabilitą$2FIR$3CFIC002417$9E 676 $a519.2$9$v21 700 1$aBaclawski$b, Kenneth$3CFIV054250$041605 801 3$aIT$bIT-000000$c20130912 850 $aIT-BN0095 901 $bNAP 01$cM/S $n$ 912 $aPUV1124791 950 0$aBiblioteca Centralizzata di Ateneo$c1 v.$d 01M/S (C) 21 227$e 01C 0800212275 VMA 1 v.$fY $h20130912$i20130912 977 $a 01 996 $aIntroduction to probability with R$965741 997 $aUNISANNIO
