Hurricanes are expected to grow stronger as the climate warms, with more of them spinning up into major storms. But it’s not just the biggest cyclones that are worsening. New research finds that weak tropical cyclones, including tropical storms and low-category hurricanes, are intensifying over time.
It’s among the first studies to use direct ocean measurements, rather than satellite data, to track changes in the intensity of tropical cyclones over time. Scientists often rely on aircraft missions to collect up-close information about a hurricane’s wind speed and other physical characteristics. But it’s not possible to gather that kind of data for every individual cyclone that forms around the world.Still, some previous studies have attempted it—and there are some indications that tropical cyclones are getting stronger over time.
The new study adds a line of direct evidence that tropical cyclones are getting stronger. The ocean measurements suggest that tropical cyclones are likely intensifying at a rate of around 1.8 meters per second each decade. The study suggests that this strengthening trend holds true for storms all over the world.
Another lie
So, are there any weak ones anymore? What kind of English do you use in Scientific American. Babbleduck.. Give up the attempt to talk science. It is beyond your abilities.
So close... But a swing and a miss. psst before chiming in: hurricanes when they develop over the N. Atlantic, central N Pacific, and E North Pacific. cyclones when they form over the S. Pacific and Indian Ocean, typhoons when they develop in the NW, Pacific.
This is the 'climate change' narrative, and we know that narrative is funding driven. Any conclusion that seems to support the 'climate change' narrative is likely to be grant-seeking behavior, not science. The climate is NOT warming - if you remove all the data falsification.
Probably monitored by satan and bitches.
I was in a Category 3 hurricane in Puerto Rico. My parents said this recent hurricane packed a much harder punch that they were used to. Couple this with record breaking Hurricane Maria and the truth is being written in blood
