Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Epidemiology
  • Statistics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Environmental health, Meteorology, Heat wave, Relative humidity and Outbreak. His research integrates issues of Relative risk and Poisson regression in his study of Environmental health. In the field of Meteorology, his study on Mineral dust and Geopotential height overlaps with subjects such as Threshold temperature, Azores High and Plateau.

Many of his studies on Heat wave involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Percentile. His Relative humidity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Humidity, Wind speed, Incidence and Mean radiant temperature. His Outbreak research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Desert dust and Air quality index.

His most cited work include:

  • A Review of the European Summer Heat Wave of 2003 (362 citations)
  • Heat waves in Madrid 1986–1997: effects on the health of the elderly (196 citations)
  • How exceptional was the early August 2003 heatwave in France (172 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Relative risk, Poisson regression, Environmental health, Heat wave and Meteorology. His study explores the link between Relative risk and topics such as Attributable risk that cross with problems in Respiratory system, Emergency medicine and Seasonality. His Poisson regression study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental engineering, Epidemiology, Gerontology and Risk factor.

His research in Environmental health intersects with topics in Mineral dust and Cardiovascular mortality. Julio Díaz has included themes like Percentile, Statistics and Extreme heat in his Heat wave study. His study in the field of Air quality index and Cold wave also crosses realms of Azores High.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Relative risk (26.92%)
  • Poisson regression (25.96%)
  • Environmental health (23.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Relative risk (26.92%)
  • Incidence (3.85%)
  • Precipitation index (2.88%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Julio Díaz mainly investigates Relative risk, Incidence, Precipitation index, Context and Poisson regression. His study brings together the fields of Emergency medicine and Relative risk. Julio Díaz combines subjects such as Mineral dust and Environmental health with his study of Incidence.

His Context research incorporates elements of Phase, Health indicator, Risk analysis, Plan and Population health. His Poisson regression study incorporates themes from Univariate, Multivariate statistics, Logit, Attributable risk and Socioeconomic status. The concepts of his Attributable risk study are interwoven with issues in Global health, Hospital admission, Generalized linear model and Autoregressive integrated moving average.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Impacts of climate change on the public health of the Mediterranean Basin population - Current situation, projections, preparedness and adaptation. (18 citations)
  • Heat-health action plans in Europe: Challenges ahead and how to tackle them. (13 citations)
  • Effects on daily mortality of droughts in Galicia (NW Spain) from 1983 to 2013. (10 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Epidemiology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Vulnerability, Adaptation, Environmental planning, Extreme weather and Mediterranean Basin. His Vulnerability research overlaps with Order, Perspective, Agriculture, Context and Human health. His Adaptation investigation overlaps with Political science, Blueprint, Multitude, Corporate governance and Stakeholder.

His Environmental planning studies intersect with other disciplines such as Urban design and Action. His Extreme weather research includes themes of Population growth and Climate change mitigation.
