Briefly summarize the relationship between SST and hurricane strength. What are the implications of this on future hurricanes? What advice would you give to coastal planners regarding future development of coastal areas on the U.S. east coast?
SST and wind speed are apparently linked. Higher SSTs correlate with higher wind speeds. As SSTs increase, storm power will also increase, leading to more destructive storms. Development should be curtailed in low-lying coastal areas vulnerable to storm surge and flooding.
