The purpose of this study is to assist designers of decision-making tools, such as the Hazardous Extremes for Risk Assessments (HERA) and the Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) tools on the Convergence website, in producing efficient and informative products. Tools being developed by CISA and SERCC are intended for use by public health and emergency management/preparedness officials and other decision-makers charged with the welfare of those at risk from hazardous weather and climate events. Based on study results, website tools can be modified to be more useful and informative to those who need them to make decisions regarding exposure to and impacts from severe weather and extreme climate events.
Thank you for your interest, but this study is recruiting by invitation only.
