A new study has found a significant correlation between "absolute" humidity and influenza virus survival and transmission. When absolute humidity is low -- as in peak flu months of January and ...

Influenza A incidence peaks during winter in temperate regions. The basis for this pronounced seasonality is not understood, nor is it well documented how influenza A transmission principally occurs.

CORVALLIS, Ore. – A new study by Oregon researchers has found a significant correlation between "absolute" humidity and influenza virus survival and transmission. When absolute humidity is low – as in ...

Studies of seasonal influenza have long found indications that flu spreads better in dry air. Now, new research being published Tuesday in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, indicates ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A description is given of a ruby lidar, differential absorption system developed for the measurement of absolute humidity profiles in the ...

Here’s a novel potential public health measure against the flu—kick up the humidity. The cold, dry months of winter signal the start of flu season. But previous research found only a weak correlation ...

Outdoor ambient weather has been hypothesized to be responsible for the seasonal distribution of cardiac arrhythmias. Because people spend most of their time indoors, we hypothesized that ...

Despite editor Tess Maunder’s opening description of Absolute Humidity as a “sweaty brow,” this book is refreshing. Published by Hardworking Goodlooking / Lobregat Balaguer, and printed in a printing ...

Relative humidity has substantially declined in recent decades, defying global warming computer models predicting higher amounts of atmospheric water vapor that will exacerbate global warming. The ...
