On the cover

The cover satellite cloud image shows a super tropical cyclone forming and developing above the tropical ocean; this formation generally leads to a cyclonic storm, storm tide, and other severe natural disasters in coastal areas or where it lands. Global warming is causing sea surface temperatures to increase, and several studies argue that this phenomenon is affecting the intensity and frequency of tropical cyclones. According to the Fifth Assessment Report released by the IPCC, the intensity and frequency of storms forming in the North Atlantic Ocean have both increased since 1970. Despite the causes of such phenomena being controversial, the correlation between climate change and trop-ical cyclone intensity and frequency has been verified by a considerable number of studies. We should take more effective measures to ensure that the impacts of climate change are limited to within a controllable range, thus building a safer and more sustainable future.
