It has been a matter of scientific dispute for years, but new research from the National Center for Atmospheric Research provides evidence that global warming in the last century has steadily increased the average number of hurricanes and tropical storms. This is important information since Hurricane Katrina in 2004 was blamed in part on global warming. The study concluded that tropical storms have doubled in intensity in the last century. This new study should be studied to understand how the future climate change will cause changes to the world.
