Summary
Abstract: Hurricane activity in the North Atlantic Ocean has increased
significantly since 1995. This trend has been attributed to both
anthropogenically induced climate change and natural variability,
but the primary cause remains uncertain. Changes in the frequency
and intensity of hurricanes in the past can provide insights into
the factors that influence hurricane activity, but reliable
