I am writing an essay for a University project and wondered if anyone knows of any good sites or books that I could use to aid my research??? Cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons, etc are being fueled by the thermal energy in water. The oceans are getting warmer so we鈥檙e getting more and more powerful winds

23 Tropical Storm Trami (Tomas) December 16鈥擠ecember 19, 2006 traditional science says yes. They will get stronger and more frequent as the imbalance grows bigger and keeps trying to correct itself. Some scientists think so but the last year brought that into question since it was a completely dead hurricane season despite unusually warm water.
The global warming crowd claims it will but the hurricane experts say it won't, there is considerable debate about it. The hurricane experts point to the natural cycle of hurricane intensity where the global warming crowd point to their as yet unproven theory, which to date does not coincide well at all with hurricane intensity. In the latter case, they have very little statistical evidence to base their theory on. |
