The shade WBGT is calculated for an environment shaded from direct (and strong reflected) solar radiation and where surfaces are not significantly hotter or colder than the indicated air temperature. * The calculation of AT requires an observation of temperature, humidity, and wind. If any of these are unavailable, the AT field is left blank.
The coloured WBGT ranges used above:
The WBGT values displayed here should be used in conjunction with guidelines provided by Sports Medicine Australia (SMA).
