Using historical records and model data, researchers have for the first time shown that the annual number of tropical cyclones dropped during the 20th century compared with the late 19th century.

Hospitalizations from many causes rise for older U.S. adults rise in the days following big storms, a new study confirms.

Biodiversity could suffer as result, and more carbon could be added to the atmosphere.

Researchers create first model for hurricane hazard assessment that is both open source and capable of accounting for climate change.

Chia-Ying Lee, a scientist at the International Research Institute for Climate and Society, studies the structure and intensity evolution of tropical cyclones and how these are influenced by climate change.

If a serious cyclone were to strike Mumbai, the results could be catastrophic, says a study underway at Columbia.

In studying climate and tropical cyclones, researchers find a weather phenomenon at play.

Using one of the most advanced atmospheric computer models available, scientists compared our expected future with a scenario in which ozone-depleting substances had never been regulated.

With Chapala’s destructive landfall in Yemen just a couple of days in the past, a second tropical cyclone, Megh, has just formed in the Arabian Sea. This one is not forecast to become anywhere near as intense as Chapala did—though we know intensity forecasts can be wrong, as they were at early stages for both Chapala and Patricia.

Hurricane Patricia, the strongest hurricane ever observed in either the Atlantic or eastern Pacific, is expected to make landfall on the Southwest coast of Mexico this afternoon and evening as an extremely dangerous Category 5 hurricane.
