MORE CYCLONES ARE COMING

摘要

Satellites that monitor tropical cyclones have only been in use for the past 40 years. Prior to that, researchers used observations from ships and aircraft, but those observations did not include the systematic measurements we have today. Despite satellite measurements, researchers still have difficulty predicting the path and severity of hurricanes. However, one thing has become clear, the frequency and strength of hurricanes will continue to increase as the climate warms.
