“…In response to the very likely future warming, both theoretical and numerical modeling studies projected an enhancement of storm intensity (Knutson et al, 2020;Lee et al, 2020;Pérez-Alarcón et al, 2023;Wu et al, 2022), hence posing tremendous risks and impacts for the socioeconomic development and human lives (Peduzzi et al, 2012;Rappaport, 2000). Such projected stronger storms are supported by the evidence during the past warmer-than-present climates (Fedorov et al, 2010;Hearty & Tormey, 2017;Krencker et al, 2015;Yan et al, 2016Yan et al, , 2021Yan et al, , 2023, highlighting the intimate linkage between storm intensity and global warming.…”
