Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat.
