“…To date, extensive research has established temperature-mortality relationships ( Anderson et al, 2013 ; Gasparrini et al, 2015 ; O'Lenick et al, 2020 ), explored the interactions among heat hazard, urban populations, and the built environment with a focus on vulnerable groups, urban heat island effect, and heat health risks ( Gronlund et al, 2018 ; Harlan et al, 2013 ; Heaton et al, 2014 ; O'Lenick et al, 2019 ). Previous studies proposed methods for mapping extreme heat vulnerability ( Conlon et al, 2020 ; Heaton et al, 2014 ; Reid et al, 2009 ; Uejio et al, 2011 ) and provided key insights into the processes that drive social vulnerability to extreme heat, including individual decision-making and broader societal factors ( Wilhelmi & Hayden, 2010 ; Hayden et al, 2011 , 2017 ; Harlan et al, 2013 ; Heaton et al, 2014 ; Esplin et al, 2019 ; Howe et al, 2019 ).…”
