Description
Modeling data on the average number of hours of heat stress per year (average of 2019-2022). Heat stress
This is represented by the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) and 26°C UTCI is used as a limit value. The UTCI
combines data of air temperature, humidity, wind speed and radiation to a value of the "perceived"
Temperature. All variables of UTCI were calculated with the help of AI at different spatial resolutions
and validated against a measuring network. More information about the models and data at
https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-17-1667-2024.
The calculation of the data took place in 2024 - no update is planned. The data is OpenData - Attribution: "Professorship of Meteorology, University of Freiburg".
