Ocean warming patterns key to accurate tropical cyclone climate projections

Ocean warming patterns key to accurate tropical cyclone climate projections

A new review published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences sheds light on one of climate science's enduring puzzles: how the patterns of tropical ocean warming influence the behavior of tropical cyclones (TCs) in a warming world. An international team of scientists synthesizes decades of observational evidence and climate modeling advances to chart a path forward for more reliable TC projections.
