OCEANS OUT OF WHACK
Researchers say warming seas are shifting marine species and reducing reliable catches, with some fisheries already facing lower yields and more volatile conditions.
- The 2026 hurricane season has been remarkable, with the Atlantic Ocean experiencing record-breaking calm while the eastern and central Pacific Ocean remains hyperactive.
- In a normal year, the Atlantic and eastern Pacific hurricane basins see similar activity, with 14 to 15 named storms, including seven to eight hurricanes, by season's end.
- Only 7 tropical storms have formed in the Atlantic, while 18 tropical storms and hurricanes have formed in the Pacific, creating a stark contrast from typical seasonal patterns.
- The Atlantic basin has failed to produce a single hurricane this season, a development experts describe as remarkable given typical activity levels in previous years.
- Experts caution against ruling out late-season activity, as historical patterns still allow for the development of tropical storms or hurricanes before the season concludes.
