If I were to pick a dog in this hunt, i would have to go with higher water surface temperatures will mean more intense hurricanes just because of the physics of hurricanes. That article on wind-shear is based on observation and many scientists don't accept it.
As for the phrase "proven science", you come up with a source that says that the ocean surface temperature that a hurricane passes over doesn't influence the strength of a hurricane, I will re-consider.:D

the surface water temperature obviously influences the strength of a hurricane. the problem is that you are only looking at one piece of the physics of hurricanes. the fact is there are so many factors that you can't just make a blanket statement like "higher temperatures = more intense hurricanes" as your article confirms.

The wind shear article didn't disprove the notion that higher water surface temperatures means more intense hurricanes. The author of that article thought that fewer hurricanes would make landfall in the United States.

Wind shear reduces the intensity of hurricanes.

do you think that the waters around the u.s. have special properties that make the wind-shear they create more disruptive to hurricanes than in other parts of the world?

Notice the part about wind shear over the North Atlantic.

John McCain just said that scientist "overwhelmingly" believe that Co2 from humans are causing the greenhouse effect responsible for Global Warming.
I really like McCain. He's obviously not the same guy who graduated 5th from the bottom of his class at the Naval Academy.
Have a great day!!

I am sure McCain is qualified to opine on what the "scientific consensus" is.
"Who are you who are so wise in the ways of science?"

Come on, alta. What difference does it make where he graduated in his class. I know quite a few people who didn't graduate who are very intelligent and analytical. Maybe he enjoyed his time there too much. Many times, those are the people who are more in touch with the real pulse of the people as they don't elevate themselves over them.

Interesting article about meltwater glacial lakes disappearing overnight in Greenland.
