Using Discredited Models, Media Claim Climate Change Making Hurricanes ‘Wetter’
hurricane ida louisianaDozens of corporate media outlets published stories claiming anthropogenic climate change caused 2020’s hurricane season to be “wetter,” with more rain falling in shorter periods of time than would have occurred naturally. Data indicates this is false.
The stories were all based on a single “attribution,” study in Nature Communications. [bold, links added]
The study is impossible to verify since it is based on computer models simulations of the past and future, not measurements of past rainfall amounts over the time period specified in the study.
