Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
