Abstract: While low winter temperatures are associated with increased mortality, this phenomenon has been suggested to be most severe in regions with seemingly mild winters. The study aimed to establish a temperature-based formula that could elucidate the previously ambiguous regional differences in vulnerability to low temperature. European weekly mortality data (2000–2019) were matched with meteorological data to determine for each region vulnerability to temperature decrease and the optimal temperature with lowest mo… Show more
