An exploration of the relationship between extra-tropical cyclone (winter storm) risk and our changing climate.
In Part I of the series Dr. Peter Dailey, Head of Research at Aeolus, introduced the foundations of climate change science and described how climate models provide a deeper understanding of the environment in which we live today and the uncertainties around how our climate may evolve in the future.
In Part II, Dr. Dailey probed more deeply into how the warming atmosphere, and more importantly, the warming oceans, may influence one of nature’s most powerful and destructive weather systems – the tropical cyclone.
In his latest paper, Dr. Dailey explores the relationship between extra-tropical cyclone (winter storm) risk and our changing climate. Drawing on historical experience, the best catastrophe modeling tools available, and the implementation of the latest actionable research, Aeolus is proactively addressing the changing risk landscape to include ETCs and incorporates appropriate adjustments in its holistic approach to underwriting. Aeolus Research continues to track the latest scientific findings in this area and vendor model R&D with regard to regional and temporal changes in the risk.
