We compute estimated heat exposures in Texas, aggregated to Census tracts. In the first scenario, we compute
average temperature experienced over a week at home locations within each tract. In the second scenario, we
use a synthetic population of Texas to simulate mobility due to weekly activities and compute the average
temperature experienced by people in each tract as they go about their typical activities. The third scenario
shows the difference between these two estimates.
The height of a bar is proportional to the population of the tract. The color indicates the estimated temperature
exposure. Click and drag to pan. Cmd-click to rotate. Scroll to zoom.
