Such findings indicate that few places on Earth will be immune to global warming and that the tropics will likely experience
associated climate impacts, such as increased tropical
storm intensity.»
Increases in the
intensity of the solar wind are
associated with auroras, magnetic
storms, and other disturbances in the earth's magnetic field and atmosphere.
Even without changing
intensity or frequency of
storms, the impact of
associated storm surges increases with increasing sea levels.
The IPCC and
associated Climategate scientists have claimed that human - induced global warming was producing unprecedented
storm activity, with greater frequency and
intensity.
Scientists are particularly concerned with the ability of reef - building corals to persist in the face of ocean acidification combined with the other stressors such as temperature increase, sea level rise, and changes in
storm intensity all also
associated with climate change.
From an observational perspective then, key issues are the tropical
storm formation regions, the frequency,
intensity, duration and tracks of tropical
storms, and
associated precipitation.
A composite analysis of satellite - based SST measurements reveals that in the tropical region the average strength of the
storm - induced sea surface cooling can be explained by the superposition of an effect due to the
storm intensity and an effect
associated with the translation speed, and implies that the variability of upper ocean stratification may not be an important factor in this region
It has been tight - lipped even about the risks for its massive oil refinery facilities in coastal areas subject to
storm surges and flooding and
associated with sea - level rise and the projected increased
intensity and rainfall rates of North Atlantic hurricanes.
