Vertical wind shear can keep tropical storms in check, particularly during El Niño years. When El Niño is gone, it’s a different story.
Climate models suggest North Africa will get drier in future. But its caves tell a different story.
Climate assemblies may just provide the breakthrough required to develop popular, just and sustainable climate and energy policies.
Can Hurricane Fiona give us a hint about what future climate change might bring to Eastern Canada? Unravelling this question could lie in understanding ancient storm records.
A lack of weather radar stations means Africa is being hit hard by extreme weather events.
Natural disasters cause billions in damage to ports around the world each year.
A look back at hurricane history suggests we may be significantly underestimating future risks.
Storm Fiona caused a lot of property damage and erosion on the Canadian coast. But its effects are also felt in the depths of the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
Research shows that coastal businesses’ hurricane recovery depends on workers being able to return.
Teaching students techniques to cope with anxiety and stress can help them bounce back after a hurricane upends their life.

For some people, the risks associated with leaving can seem more dangerous than the storm.
The meteorologist leading NOAA’s 2022 hurricane field program describes flying through eyewalls and the technology in these airborne labs for tracking rapid intensification in real time.
Engineers, architects and builders can design and construct affordable new buildings that can resist tornadoes, floods and wildfires, but do not. We have that opportunity now.
The test facility in Miami helps building designers prevent future storm damage. With the warming climate intensifying hurricanes, engineers are planning a new one with 200 mph winds and storm surge.
Rising populations and a warming climate mean storm surges from super cyclones are likely to affect increasing numbers of vulnerable people.
For the first time, an IPCC climate report has assessed evidence that weather and climate extremes are already affecting mental health — and are likely to worsen.
