The November Surprise: Why Caribbean Hurricanes are Doubling in Intensity and Frequency

This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Recent Increasing Trend in October–November Caribbean Tropical Cyclone Activity” by Klotzbach. (2026). This research analyzes the significant increase in Caribbean tropical cyclone activity during October and November from 1979 to 2024. The authors identify a doubling of hurricane-strength storms and landfalls in recent decades, driven... Continue Reading →

More Pixels Solved the Pacific Ocean’s Cooling Mystery

This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Km-scale coupled simulation and model–observation SST trend discrepancy” by Kang et al. (2026). This research article investigates why traditional climate models fail to replicate the observed cooling in the Southern Ocean and southeastern tropical Pacific. By utilizing the ICON coupled model at a kilometer-scale resolution,... Continue Reading →

Why the South Atlantic is Key to Monitoring the Future Weakening of the AMOC

This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Rainfall sustains multiyear La Niña” by Tian et al. (2026). This research investigates how the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) imprints its signal on regional ocean currents, specifically comparing the North and South Atlantic. By analyzing 22,000 years of climate simulations,... Continue Reading →

How Dry Skies Sustain Multiyear La Niña

This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Rainfall sustains multiyear La Niña”  by Tian et al. (2026). This research investigates how rainfall-induced salinity changes act as a critical feedback loop to sustain multiyear La Niña events. While early stages of these cooling events are driven by ocean dynamics like advection, the study reveals... Continue Reading →

The Arctic’s New Engine: Why the Great Ocean Conveyor Belt is Defying the Warming Trend

This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Atlantification drives recent strengthening of the Arctic overturning circulation” by Årthun et al. (2026). A recent study examines how Atlantification, the northward expansion of warm Atlantic waters, is altering the Arctic overturning circulation. While traditional source regions for dense water in the Nordic Seas have... Continue Reading →
