The influence of speed and temperature of the air was evaluated in various combinations in Dagestan. Atheight of 4m above sea level, the risk of hyperthermia became plausible during 7, the risk of hypothermiabecame plausible with combinations of minimum temperature with average (January) and maximumwind – 5 months. In the period from October to March, there was a moderate or critical risk of frostbite.At the height of 1 661 m, the risk of hyperthermia became significant during 3–6 months, the risk ofhypothermia was possible during 3–7 months; during winter period with the combinations of minimumtemperature and maximum wind, the risk of freezing injury was critical.
