520 ▼a Climate change has already increased the frequency, intensity, and duration of heat waves around the world. In the coming decades, this trend will continue and likely accelerate, exposing much of the world's population to historically unpreceden
520 ▼a In addition to rising temperatures, atmospheric humidity has been observed to increase in recent decades and models project this trend to continue. As a result, joint heat-humidity metrics indicating heat stress are likely to rapidly increase in
520 ▼a The projected changes in extreme temperatures will have a variety of impacts on infrastructure and other human systems. This dissertation explores how more frequent and severe hot conditions will impact aircraft takeoff performance by reducing a
520 ▼a Finally, this dissertation discusses evidence-based adaptation strategies to reduce the impacts of extreme heat in urban areas. It reviews a body of literature showing that effective strategies exist to both lower urban temperatures on a large s
