| description | max 2m daily wet bulb globe temperature (WGBT): Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) is a particularly effective indicator of heat stress for active populations such as outdoor workers and athletes. The calculation should be done with: WBGT = 0.567 \* T\_C + 0.393 \* e/100 + 3.94, where T\_C is temperature in degrees C, and e = huss \* p \* M\_air / M\_H2O, where "huss=specific humidity in kg/kg", M\_H2O = 18.01528/1000 # kg/mol, M\_air = 28.964/1000 # kg/mol for dry air and "P = surface pressure in Pa" |
