Luca Mercalli, president of the Italian Meteorological Society, explained that the current sea temperatures are providing an enormous amount of energy for storms, significantly increasing their intensity.
As sea temperatures reached 30C this summer, new records contributed to extreme weather events, highlighting the urgent need to address the climate crisis.
The recent storm that sank the superyacht Bayesian off Sicily illustrates how rising sea temperatures can exacerbate weather intensity, leading to catastrophic outcomes.
Researchers warn that the climate crisis is not only responsible for higher sea temperatures but will also increase the frequency of similar extreme weather events in the future.
