Fig. 1

Estimated minimum mortality temperature (MMT) percentile for 135 cities in the US by three different methods; Argmin2 (red), Empirical1 (blue), Empirical2minimal (orange). Points indicate the point estimate and vertical solid/dashed bars indicate 95% empirical interval estimates. Cities are ordered according to the MMT uncertainty (the length of the interval estimates obtained by Empirical1). The cities are divided into 4 categories (indicated by black dashed vertical lines) with respect to the MMT uncertainty and temperature-mortality association types (refer to Fig. S8)
