“…First of all, TC frequency in the North Atlantic is projected to decline in the future in the majority of climate model studies (e.g., Knutson et al., 2020; Roberts et al., 2020a, 2020b; and references therein). However, this projected decrease in TC frequency is still highly uncertain (e.g., Hsieh et al., 2022, 2023; Jing et al., 2021; Knutson et al., 2020; Lee et al., 2023; Roberts et al., 2020b; Sobel et al., 2021; and references therein). For example, opposite results have been derived from some climate model projections (e.g., Bhatia et al., 2018; Murakami et al., 2014; Vecchi et al., 2019) and statistical‐dynamical downscaling (e.g., Emanuel, 2013, 2021; Lee et al., 2020, 2022).…”
