around the world, as well undeniable increases in warming being that have been experienced at the global scale.
How hurricanes develop also depends on how the local
atmosphere responds to
changes in local sea surface temperatures, and this atmospheric response depends critically on the cause of the
change.23, 24 For example, the
atmosphere responds differently when local sea surface temperatures increase due to a local decrease of particulate pollution that allows more sunlight through to warm the ocean, versus when sea surface temperatures increase more uniformly
around the world due to increased amounts of human - caused heat - trapping gases.25, 26,27,28
