Hurricanes

For my paper I am writing about how global warming is effecting hurricanes. With the recent disasters in places like New Orleans still on everyone's mind it is interesting to learn hurricanes are predicted to become more powerful. The main cause is because global warming is causing the sea surface temperature (SST) to rise. These are great sites that explain a little bit more about why this is happening and how much worse it could get.
