From Climate Central's Andrew   Freedman:

 Hurricanes are Mother Nature’s largest and most destructive storms. Fed by warm ocean waters and moist atmospheric conditions, about 90 such  storms — also known as tropical cyclones — form worldwide each year. With the  population of coastal areas growing daily and sea level on the rise, how these  monster storms may change as the climate continues to warm is an  increasingly  urgent question facing climate scientists, insurance companies, and public  officials.

 A new study by Kerry Emanuel, a prominent hurricane researcher  at MIT, found that contrary to previous findings, tropical cyclones are likely  to become both stronger and more frequent in the years to come, especially in  the western North Pacific, where storms can devastate the heavily populated  coastlines of Asian nations. Emanuel's research showed the same holds
true for  the North Atlantic, where about 12 percent of the world's tropical cyclones spin  each year.
