      abstract = {This book introduces the UTCI (Universal Thermal Climate  Index) and summarises progress in this area. The UTCI  (Universal Thermal Climate Index) was developed as part of  the European COST Action Program and first announced to the  scientific community in 2009. Since then a decade has  followed of applicability tests and research results as  well as knowledge gained from applying the UTCI in human  adaptation and thermal perception. These findings are of  interest to researchers in the interdisciplinary areas of  biometeorology, climatology and urban planning. The book  summarizes this progress, discussing the limitations found  and provides pointers to future developments. It also  discusses UTCI applications in the areas of human  biometeorology and urban planning including possibilities  of using UTCI and similar indices in climate-responsive  urban planning. The book's message is illustrated with many  case studies from the real world.
