Mortality risks associated with ozone exposure: Modified by temperature and mediating temperature effects
Ozone contributes to mortality both directly and indirectly by mediating temperature effects. Addressing this dual pathway through stronger year-round ozone control and by incorporating temperature-ozone interactions into health warning systems may help reduce risks, particularly among vulnerable groups.
