 The relationship between human health and climate is important in climate studies, as the climate and its climatic elements are considered to influence a person’s comfort or lack thereof, and humans can live comfortably if the temperature ranges between (17-30) C°. A person’s feeling of heat and cold and then comfort or discomfort It is not caused by air temperature only, but it depends on many elements, including solar radiation, air movement, relative humidity, and the level of activity that a person engages in, in addition to the type of clothing that he wears. The wind cooling index has been used to show the effect of climate on human comfort in Iraq, and climate data has been relied upon for a period of time. Thirty-one years.
