The time trend temperature-mortality as a factor of uncertainty analysis of impacts of future heat waves

Recently, the paper by Wu et al. (2014), “Estimation and Uncertainty Analysis of Impacts of Future Heat Waves on Mortality in the Eastern United States,” concluded that “the major sources of uncertainty were the relative risk estimates for mortality on heat wave versus non–heat wave days, the RCP sc...
