Last Millennium Hurricane Activity linked to Endogenous Climate Variability

Abstract: Although Atlantic hurricane risk is expected to increase in a warming climate, projecting trends in hurricane frequency over the present century is still highly uncertain. The short instrumental record limits our understanding of hurricane activity and its relationship to climate, especially on multi-decadal and longer time scales. Here we extend the instrumental hurricane frequency record using two independent sources of information: (1) a reconstruction of basin-wide Atlantic hurricane frequency over the las… Show more

“…Moreover, sedimentary archives do not necessarily record high precipitation events, and tropical cyclones and depressions with comparably weak wind speeds or storm surges can still bring a considerable amount of δ 18 O depleted rainfall (e.g., Govender et al., 2013; Warken, Kuchalski, et al., 2022). Interestingly, our record shares a similar pattern with a recent study combining sedimentary paleo‐hurricane records and a statistical reconstruction of hurricane activity dependent on SSTs (Yang et al., 2024) (Figure 3). Taking dating uncertainties into account, periods of lower speleothem δ 18 O values appear to coincide with times of higher statistical probability of hurricane occurrence associated with warmer SSTs (Yang et al., 2024).…”

Taking dating uncertainties into account, periods of lower speleothem δ 18 O values appear to coincide with times of higher statistical probability of hurricane occurrence associated with warmer SSTs (Yang et al., 2024). We interpret this common pattern such that warmer SSTs generally support enhanced convection and cyclogenesis, from tropical waves, depressions, tropical storms, and hurricanes, which altogether result in higher rainfall amounts affecting Puerto Rico.…”
