Author’s Note: This will be the last routine issuance of the daily Talking Tropics newsletter for the 2025 hurricane season unless conditions warrant otherwise. I extend my deepest gratitude to all our regular readers and new subscribers. I’m honored ...

Oxygen depletion in the western Baltic Sea is not uncommon. Oxygen-poor conditions regularly occur in deeper waters, placing stress on marine ecosystems and, in extreme cases, causing fish kills. As ocean temperatures continue to rise due to climate change,

Supercomputers and machine learning are changing the way we forecast hurricanes. Hurricane danger reaches far beyond the coast with flooding rains and violent winds. Forecasting takes more than radar. It relies on supercomputers, machine learning and 3D ...
