Figure 4. Adult Height (cm.) and Average Daily Temperature at Each Stage of the Life Cycle
Note: In each graph, the solid blue line represents the point estimate and the dashed line the 95% confidence intervals. Each estimate shows the effect on adult health outcomes of having more days with temperature above 50ËšF. The stages of the life cycle were aggregated into four groups: Pre, which represents in utero exposure (i.e., the year before birth), Inf (aged between 1 and 4), Child (5-9) and Teen (10-15.) All regressions control for fixed effects at the district, birth cohort and survey year as well as state trends and individual characteristics (i.e., education, marital status and gender.)
