The U.S. CLIVAR Hurricane
Working Group was formed in January 2011. The scientific
objectives of this group include: (a) an improved understanding
of interannual variability and trends in the tropical cyclone activity
from the beginning of the 20th century to the present; (b) quantifying
changes in the characteristics of tropical cyclones under a warming
climate.
