Total Effect of Heat on Mortality Considering Heat-Mediated Air Pollution and Interaction Effects under Demographic, Mitigation, and Adaptation Scenarios

Update: June 17, 2026The current code estimates the effect of heat waves vs non-heatwaves, not the effect of high ambient temperatures. So, the fraction of interaction-related effect can be low. Code for the effect of high ambient temperatures will be added shortly. This repository provides example R code and simulated data for the paper: “Total Effect of Heat on Mortality Considering Heat-Mediated Air Pollution and Interaction Effects under Demographic, Mitigation, and Adaptation Scenarios,” (Environmental Research, 2026) https://github.com/HonghyokKim/Total_Effect_Of_Heat
