Just 15 days later a weakening Nicholas came nearby, close enough for its wind, rain and storm surge to add to the problems, said study co-author Ning Lin, a risk engineer and climate scientist at Princeton.
"We found a trend," Lin said. "Those things are happening. They’re happening more often now than before." The team then looked at what would happen in the future using a worst-case scenario of increasing carbon dioxide emissions and a more moderate scenario in line with current efforts worldwide to reduce greenhouse gases. In both situations, the frequency of back-to-back storms increased dramatically from current expectations.as numerous studies predict, along with sea levels rising. The study looked heavily at the impacts of storms more than just the storms themselves.
