Abstract

The article discusses the comments to the published paper "Hurricanes and Global Warming— Potential Linkages and Consequences." The 2005 North Atlantic hurricane season experienced the largest number of named storms, hurricanes, and the only year with three category five storms on record including the most intense Wilma, Rita in the Gulf of Mexico, and the most costly storm Katrina.
