Recent studies have shown that hydro-climatic extremes have increased significantly in number and intensity in the last decades. In the Northern Hemisphere such events were often associated with long lasting persistent weather patterns. In 2018, hot and
Most hurricanes form and are sustained in warm ocean waters of 80–89 degrees Fahrenheit. Those warm temperatures are typically found within an area north and south of the equator. Kossin's research from a 2014 paper in Nature identified a trend of hurricanes traveling beyond their usual ranges...

Forcing for this pattern may have come from equatorward compression of glacial climate zones due to high-latitude cooling in both hemispheres and/or suppression of meridional monsoonal circulation via feedback from northern hemisphere ice cover. W hen compared with CLIMAP estimates of lower seasonal ...
