Hurricanes in a Warming World: Perspectives and Projections gathers an extensive collection of scientific articles exploring the complex interplay between climate change and hurricane activity. Within these pages, experts delve into the rapidly evolving dynamics of hurricanes, driven by factors like rising sea surface temperatures, altered atmospheric patterns, and increased greenhouse gas emissions. Readers will uncover in-depth analyses on a wide range of topics, from the heightened frequency of Category 5 hurricanes in the Atlantic to the stark shifts in media coverage of climate events from Hurricane Katrina to Hurricane Sandy. The collection also investigates the future impacts on storm surge inundation, the growing severity of hurricanes due to global warming, and the crucial need for updated warning systems and adaptation strategies. Insightful case studies from regions like New Jersey, the Caribbean, Vietnam, and South Korea provide a global perspective, highlighting the socio-economic impacts and pressing need for effective disaster management and policy reforms. This anthology offers invaluable insights for researchers, policymakers, and citizens focused on navigating the challenges posed by increasingly severe hurricanes in a warming world.
