AbstractOccupational heat exposure induces physiological strain and can impair cognitive performance, exacerbating occupational error and accident risks. Although numerous heat stress indices exist, their theoretical and practical suitability for cognitive-related assessments remains ambiguous. This study established a structured multicriteria decision-making framework integrating the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) and Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) to prioritize candidate heat stress indices for occupational cognitive risk evaluation. Candidate indices and screening criteria identified via literature review and expert consensus (\(n=25\)) were evaluated using FDM, followed by FAHP with Chang’s extent analysis to derive criteria weights and overall index priorities. A one-at-a-time \(+10\%\) sensitivity analysis was performed to verify model stability.

Baby manta rays hunker down close to coasts before facing the open ocean's dangers - Phys.org
One of the manta rays tracked in the study. Credit: Jeffry Madrigal Giant manta rays can grow up to nine meters (30 feet) long with a disk size of seven meters (23 feet) across and weigh up to 2,000 kg (4,400 pounds). This size leaves them with very few natural enemies once they reach adulthood at around eight to 10 years old. But giant manta ray babies, called pups, cannot rely on their size to protect them from predators that live in the open ocean, including several species of shark and orcas.
