Wet-Bulb Temperature

When people get hot, they sweat which cools the body as it evaporates. The Wet-Bulb Temperature is the effective temperature that takes account of this cooling. If humidity is too high then the air cannot take any more moisture and there will be no evaporation and hence no cooling. As climate change is heating large regions of the world to dangerous levels this could render them uninhabitable.
