…showed last 75 words of 2829 total…there’s any other way we’re going to get a handle on the relationship between hurricanes and climate except by looking back in time” (Travis 335). Hopefully with a growing interest in discovering past hurricanes, there will be more and more scientists willing to spend time improving the forecast of the United States hurricane climate. With more research, scientists may be able to help diminish some of the destruction of property and loss of lives.
