Study finds arctic cyclones growing increasingly severe

A recent study published in the Communications Earth & Environment alleges that arctic cyclones are only growing significantly stronger due to continued global warming.

As the globe continues to warm with climate change, scientists say these cyclones will continue to intensify over time.

According to the study, arctic cyclones have been happening more frequently since records of the meteorological event started being kept in the 1950s, and lasting longer as time goes on.

The prevalence of these storms could accelerate the melting of ice in the Arctic Ocean, scientists say.
