“…15 As proposed in previous studies, mean exposure of the same day of death and 1 day prior, denoted as lag 0−1 day, was used as the main exposure metric in this study. 9,16,17 From the China Meteorological Administration Land Data Assimilation System (CLDAS version 2.0), we extracted grid data (spatial resolution of 0.0625°× 0.0625°) on daily 24 h mean air temperature (°C), specific humidity (kg/kg), surface pressure (mb), and wind speed (m/s), and retrieved daily 24 h mean relative humidity (%) in Jiangsu province, China during 2015−2021. 18 For each day in 2015−2021, we used daily 24 h mean air temperature (T), specific humidity (q), wind speed (w), and surface pressure (p) to calculate daily 24 h mean apparent temperature (°C; AT) by the following formula, 19,20 and built a corresponding grid data set.…”
