Abstract

T he variability of tropical cyclonic activity has been ascribed to different factors both of natural and anthropogenic origin. Here we show the periodicity of Super Atlantic Hurricanes (category-5). We suggest that the next period of category-5 Atlantic hurricanes will take place from 2013 to 2017 and the number of hurricanes would vary between 4-6. This Atlantic decadal fluctuation has some internal factors such as the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation, African dust, etc. and some external as El Ni?o and La Ni?a. Addition to the required climatological conditions for the formation of category-5 hurricanes, the geography of the marine bottom of the also plays an important role and we show that occurring in 5 geographical areas. These results could be used to minimize human and economic losses during the next category-5 hurricane season, as well as to improve computational forecasting models.
