The world's atmosphere can hold more moisture as it warms. As a result, the overall number of heavy storms has likely increased since midcentury due to global warming. True or false?

Respuesta :

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Yes, the number of heavy storms has increased due to global warming because of the holding power of moisture by the atmosphere due to higher temperature. When the air is warmed, the air can hold more water at that temperature so due to more holding power of moisture by the air the number of storms increases. One NASA study supports that global warming is causing the increase in number of extreme storms especially in the tropical ocean.
