The present submission is a set of Matlab functions that calculate some of the most widespread “feels like” meteorological parameters – dew point, heat index, humidex, wet-bulb temperature, wind chill and the Australian apparent temperature which reflect the combined influences of dry-bulb temperature, relative humidity and wind speed, providing a comprehensive understanding of how the weather will be perceived by individuals, particularly in terms of comfort and thermal sensation.
Three examples are given to clarify the usage of the functions. For convenience, the input and output arguments are given at the beginning of the functions.
The codes are based on the theory described in:
