The Heat Stress Index - Represents the average of the temperature exposure, social vulnerability, and heat island risk layers. Using indicators that represent climate change, social vulnerability, and the impact of the built and natural landscape, this map identifies census tracts in Michigan that are most vulnerable to heat. Such a tool can help communities prepare for extreme heat events by identifying areas that have the most vulnerable residents so that residents are targeted for support during these events. This map may also aid communities that may want to implement mitigation strategies in the most vulnerable areas.
