== Human Thermal Comfort Module ==
With r3XXX a Human Thermal Comfort Module (HTCM) was implemented in PALM. It can provide spatially distributed values of the three thermal indices 
- Perceived Temperature (PT, see Staiger et al. (2012))
- Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI, see Jendritzky et al. (2012))
- Physiologically Equivalent Temperature (PET, see Höppe (1993))
that describe thermal perception / thermal stress of a sample human being under the local meteorological conditions.

Since r31xx biometeorology models are available in PALM....HTCM and UV exposure....

Short description of both modules. From here, we will then link to more detailed descriptions.
