Line graph of tropical cyclone activity in the Atlantic from models versus observations

Image caption

Comparison of observed (black) and modeled (red) Atlantic tropical cyclone frequency. The models, which included historical estimates of volcanic activity and human-produced greenhouse gases and aerosols, closely simulated the observed increase in activity from 1980-2020.
