The simplest model that works is the best. Unfortunately, the global warming supporters have simple ideas that don’t work.
Does global warming cause strong, frequent hurricane’s? As Instapundit himself says, “There seems to be a lot of complexity involved”.
…and the actual NY Times article states:
The authors, from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, say their findings do not necessarily conflict with recent papers asserting a link between the region’s hurricane activity and human-caused warming of the climate and seas.
But, they say, their work does imply that factors other than ocean temperature, at least for thousands of years, appear to have played a pivotal role in shaping storminess in the region.
