The influence of relative humidity on adaptive thermal comfort
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that a humidity signal exists in adaptive thermal comfort using global data to form two separate lines of evidence: a meta-analysis of summary data from 63 field studies and detailed field data from 39 naturally ventilated buildings over 8 climate types.
