Poleward expansion of tropical cyclone latitudes in warming climates
Tropical cyclones (TCs, also known as hurricanes and typhoons) generally form at low
latitudes with access to the warm waters of the tropical oceans, but far enough off the …

Centennial‐scale shifts in storm frequency captured in paleohurricane records from The Bahamas arise predominantly from random variability
Event‐based paleohurricane reconstructions of the last millennium indicate dramatic
changes in the frequency of landfalling hurricanes on centennial timescales. It is difficult to …
