IS THE BIOCLIMATE OF SUCEAVA PLATEAU COMFORTABLE OR UNCOMFORTABLE? ANALYSIS BASED ON TEE AND THI
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2012, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study approaches in the first part the bioclimatic comfort or discomfort of the Suceava Plateau during the hot season based on the two most representative bioclimatic indexes (equivalent effective temperature - TEE and Temperature Humidity Index (THI). The study is completed in the second part by the analysis focused on the cold season, a period for which two other major bioclimatic indexes have been used (cooling wind power - P, equivalent temperature cooling wind power - TPR) plus an index derived from previous indices (skin stress index). We used a fifth index (pulmonary stress) to see whether the bioclimate in Suceava Plateau is stressful for the human body. The study was completed by the calculation of the total stress index and the degree of stimulation of Suceava Plateau bioclimate.
