A recent study expects that the Earth will witness very strong unparalleled tropical cyclones in the coming years as a result of global warming.
Sputnik News Agency reported that a group of scientists at the Japanese National Institute for Environmental Studies observed a significant rise in the recorded temperature of the water surface in the western Pacific Ocean off the Japanese coast, as this region recorded a record in August of 30 degrees.
The study found that the reason for the increase in this problem is due to the problem of warming that occurs as a result of increased human activity and associated with increased environmental pollution, indicating that the increase in ocean temperatures will cause an increase in the intensity of devastating tropical cyclones.
It is noteworthy that the heat of the water in the surface of the oceans gives hurricanes more energy due to the air currents, which means that a rise in the surface temperature of the oceans will surely be associated with deadly tropical cyclones that may threaten serious damage in East Asian countries in particular.
In addition, a report prepared by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration revealed that the number of dangerous hurricanes increased from an average of 10 hurricanes per year in the 1970s to reach in the 1990s to 18 hurricanes per year due to environmental problems and warming.
The report predicts an increase in the number, speed and size of devastating hurricanes in the coming years.
And the US Space Agency (NASA) had indicated in a report that 2020 was the warmest year in the history of global measurement for nearly half a century.
