Heat Stress

Just as individual humans handle stress differently, so do corals. Even coral colonies of the same species, growing side by side, vary in their tolerance to pressures such as heatwaves.

New research shows that the human body's ability to tolerate heat and humidity is lower than previously thought, with a critical wet-bulb temperature threshold closer to 31 degrees Celsius.

Donald Trump and Joe Biden have both stressed "unity" in the wake of the stunning assassination attempt on the Republican presidential contender, but any shift to a more civil political discourse is likely to be short-lived.

Heat stress occurs when the body's natural cooling systems are overwhelmed, causing symptoms ranging from dizziness and headaches to organ failure and death.

The temperature in 17 locations across the northwest breached the 48 degrees Celsius mark amid a severe heatwave which is testing human endurance.

Europe endured a record number of "extreme heat stress" days in 2023, two leading climate monitors said Monday, underscoring the threat of increasingly deadly summers across the continent.

The recent heatwave in south-east Asia may well be remembered for its level of heat-induced stress on the body

Australia's Great Barrier Reef is suffering a "mass bleaching event" as coral comes under heat stress from warmer seas, authorities said Friday.

As speculation of the Shiv Sena's reunion talks with the BJP heats up, its leader Sanjay Raut has stressed more than once that the bond between the parties remains, no matter where politics takes them.

Amazon makes getting summer-ready super easy with air coolers at up to 40% off

Post-workout bloating can be because of both overhydration and dehydration. Here's what you need to know.

India is projected to lose 5.8 per cent of working hours in 2030, a productivity loss equivalent to 34 million full-time jobs, due to global warming, particularly impacting agriculture and construction sectors, a report by the UN labour agency said.

The researchers at the IIT Delhi are conducting a study to develop India-specific heat stress tolerance thresholds to formulate a plan for heat management as they believe such stress might increase due to global warming.

The partner institutes in this project include IIT Kanpur, IISER Bhopal, RKMVU Kolkata, SRU Chennai, IIPH Gandhinagar.

LG V40 ThinQ was LG's best foot forward in 2018, but does it makes sense buying it now when new 2019 flagships are right around the corner? Read our review to find out.
