I'm involved in several studies. Both directly, and indirectly, and yes I am involved in that one. Though the team is quite large and involves members from US, UK, Canada, and Spain (due to the variety of weather records needed). Though by no means am I in a leading role.

I look forward to reading the results! :ggreen:

(Question, how does one get involved--I imagine there are some academic requirements...but I am due to return to school at least part time soon for a masters in climatology)

Most importantly you have to be an employee of the Governmental Weather Service in your country (NOAA for example), and have an academic background in Oceanography, Tropical Climatology and/or Forensic Meteorology.

No need to worry even if most of the studies are completed by the time you finish your Masters Degree, as I'm certain there will no doubt be a need to build upon the results.

To be sure. If we can go back 150 years plus in re-evaluating these 'canes, I suspect we will most assuredly be able to go back 5 or 10 and re-evaluate the re-evaluations, :lol:

The cycle never seems to end.

you can almost pick out the multidecadal cycles in the links you posted, hybridstorm...

1780s-1820s, lull, 1870s-beginning of 20th century, lull, 1930s-1960s, lull, now.

I'm glad you mentioned that. Several of the research team members in different countries have picked out those general trends as well. I'm not working on those projects (just reconstructing past storms, and their damage patterns), but there are those who will be starting work on these possible cycles in the NE US soon.
