Enhanced Efficacy Contributes to Tropical Cyclone Intensification in Warmer Climates via Stronger Storm-Scale Radiative Feedbacks

Tropical cyclones (TCs) are expected to intensify in a warming climate as sea surface temperatures (SSTs) rise. Potential intensity (PI), the thermodynamic upper limit on storm strength, has long been used to assess how environmental conditions constrain TC intensity. However, a storm’s realized strength also depends...

Different Last Millennium El Niño Southern Oscillation Sea Surface Temperature Patterns Drive Disparate North Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Characteristics

Understanding the relationship between the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon and North Atlantic tropical cyclone (TC) activity is critical for both seasonal predictions and future projections of TCs. Unfortunately, the satellite observational era (1970‐present) captures too few El Niño events to fully cha...

Drought dynamics explain once in a century yellow fever virus outbreak in Brazil with implications for climate change

While excess rainfall is associated with mosquito-borne disease because it supports mosquito breeding, drought may also counterintuitively increase disease transmission by altering mosquito and host behavior. This phenomenon is important to understand because climate change is projected to increase both extreme rainfal...
