Overview

Randomized trial assesses ozone's modifying effect on heatwave mortality in China, indicating health implications for the future.

Key Points

  • This research evaluates how ozone influences premature cardiovascular mortality linked to short-term heatwave exposure in China.
  • Integrated health impact assessment model with ERA5 meteorological data and TAP ozone concentrations
  • Analyzed data from 2013 to 2022
  • Used multi-model simulations from CMIP6 to project future health impacts.
  • Ozone-modified HW-related premature deaths rose from 1.8 thousand in 2013 to 7.3 thousand in 2022
  • Negative effects observed for ages ≥75 years and positive effects for ages ≤64 years
  • Projected changes in premature mortalities for 2060 show an increase under SSP3-7.0 by 1726 persons with ozone modification effects amplified by 8.4%.
