In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
