Changes of tropical cyclone activity in a warming world are sensitive to sea surface temperature environment

Changes of tropical cyclone activity in a warming world are sensitive to sea surface temperature environment

While there is considerable agreement in the scientific community about the intensification of tropical cyclones (TCs) in a warming world, that consensus does not exist for TC frequency. In order to shed new light on this uncertainty, we classified the global oceans into three pools based on SST per...

Zusammenfassung:While there is considerable agreement in the scientific community about the intensification of tropical cyclones (TCs) in a warming world, that consensus does not exist for TC frequency. In order to shed new light on this uncertainty, we classified the global oceans into three pools based on SST percentiles: the (a) warm (≥90th percentiles), (a) moderate (65th-90th percentiles) and (c) cool (
