American study confirms that strong storm increased involved in global warming

NASA scientists said the new study released recently by global warming, the earth deep convective clouds in tropical areas (located in the highest regions of the troposphere clouds) the frequency is increasing, which means the region will be more intense storms and rainfall .
In the recent American Geophysical Union meeting, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory senior scientist Man (Hartmut Aumann) summed up his five years of research results, published in the above conclusion.
 
 
Aumann experimental data from NASA's Aqua satellite carrying the atmospheric infrared detectors. Through these data, researchers can and intense storms, heavy rain and hail associated with specific observations of tropical clouds. Atmospheric Infrared detectors can detect about 6,000 per day of tropical clouds. Aumann led the research team found that the frequency of these clouds with the tropical seas, seasonal average temperature of a strong link between changes.
They found that the average sea surface temperature is increased by 1 degree Celsius, these high clouds increase the frequency to 45%. The team speculated that, under the current global temperature increase of 0.13 degrees Celsius per decade rate of severe storms is expected to increase by 6% per decade.
