Called the greatest storms on the planet, hurricanes of the North Atlantic Ocean        often cause tremendous social and economic upheaval in the United States, Mexico,        and the Caribbean. And with the increasing development of coastal areas, the impact        of these storms will likely increase. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of        North Atlantic hurricanes and what they mean to society. It is intended as an        intermediary between hurricane climate research and the users of hurricane        information. Topics include the climatology of tropical cyclones in general and        those of the North Atlantic in particular; the major North Atlantic hurricanes,        focusing on U.S. landfalling storms; the prediction models used in forecasting; and        societal vulnerability to hurricanes, including ideas for modeling the relationship        between climatological data and analysis in the social and economic sciences.
