Explore the latest research on intensifying storms and flooding in a changing climate in this 37-minute press conference from AGU21. Learn about trends in storm intensity, increased precipitation, and the impact of flooding on population displacement. Discover how researchers predict dangerous rapid intensification of tropical cyclones and how NOAA gathers data from inside hurricanes. Gain insights from expert panelists on topics such as hurricane intensification, uncrewed systems, rainfall studies, salinity effects, climate change impacts, super typhoons, and data collection methods across various ocean basins. Understand the implications of these findings for future weather patterns and coastal communities.
