Abstract:
Research on the health effects of temperature has expanded greatly in recent years, mainly due to the occurrence of extreme weather events and predicted climate change scenarios. The development of appropriate statistical methodology has been an important component of this research, and standard approaches, primarily based on multi-city time series regression analysis, are now well established. However, particular aspects of temperature-health associations, such as the non-linear and delayed relationship and the joint handling of multi-city data, still pose important niet hodological problems.
