Climate Change and Tropical Storms in 2024
In 2024, climate change has intensified tropical storms, evidenced by warmer sea temperatures fueling stronger winds and rainfall. The West Pacific saw destructive typhoons like Supertyphoon Man-Yi, while the Atlantic faced increased Category 5 hurricanes. Global trends indicate rising hurricane wind speeds, linked to record ocean temperatures. However, storm frequency patterns remain unclear. Discussions at COP29 in Azerbaijan addressed climate financing to mitigate such impacts. The IPCC confirmed global warming’s role in storm severity, but further research is needed to understand frequency and seasonality changes. Strengthened disaster preparedness and innovative climate strategies are vital.
