Default Atlantic Hurricane Activity

Recent historical Northern Hemisphere tropical cyclone inactivity is
compared with the strikingly large observed variability during the past
three decades. Yearly totals of Northern Hemisphere ACE are highly
correlated with boreal spring sea-surface temperatures in the North Pacific
Ocean and are representative of an evolving dual-gyre, trans-hemispheric
correlation pattern throughout the calendar year. The offsetting nature of
EPAC and NATL basin integrated energy and the strong dependence of combined
Pacific TC activity upon ENSO suggest a hypothesis that overall Northern
Hemisphere TC behavior is largely modulated by global-scale, non-local
climate variability.

These fine, peer reviewed papers are contradicted by measurements in the
first link.


How can actual data contradict the consensus?


What happened to the highly accurate models?


Science is based upon understanding to predict outcomes.


If it's not predicting outcomes, it's not science nor understanding.
