New research led by the University of Washington (UW) is the first to measure this phenomenon’s effect over years and at a regional scale. The authors compared cloud properties inside the shipping route with an estimate of what those cloud properties would have been in the absence of shipping based on statistics from nearby, unpolluted areas.

The Colorado State University forecast team predicts an above-average 2010 Atlantic basin hurricane season based on the premise that El Niño conditions will dissipate by this summer and that anomalously warm tropical Atlantic sea surface temperatures will persist. The team began using a new early April statistical model in 2008.

To compare risks, the researchers analysed a number of US and EU crash data sources using three statistical approaches to “triangulate” evidence regarding differences in crash and injury risk. An international research study examining the safety performance of US and EU motor vehicles has found differences in performance between the two.
