on a summary made for a 30-year climate period of the Atlantic Ocean basin (Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, and GOM) until 2020, each year in the hurricane season, the Atlantic Ocean encountered an average of 4 major hurricanes (Category 3–5), 8 hurricanes, and 15 named storms [10]. ...
Atlantic hurricanes are a major hazard to life and property, and a topic of intense scientific interest. Historical changes in observing practices limit the utility of century-scale records of Atlantic major hurricane frequency. To evaluate past changes in frequency, we have here developed a homogeni...
S2). In our analysis we consider storm activities within 40° N/S, but we also find count increase of annual landfalls beyond 40° N/S, particularly for hurricanes making landfall in the US and Europe (Fig. S3). Figure 2 Sensitivity of count analysis. Global annual count doubling time ...

We found that, relative to pre-industrial conditions, climate change so far has enhanced the average and extreme rainfall of hurricanes Katrina, Irma and Maria, but did not change tropical cyclone wind-speed intensity. In addition, future anthropogenic warming would robustly increase the wind speed...

"We know we are ground zero for this storm. We have avoided it for 90 years but our time has come to be ready," he said on Twitter. One of the mightiest hurricanes ever to slam storm-prone Florida, Irma is threatening dangerous storm surges of up to 15 feet (4.5 meters), enough ...
