REGIONS WITHOUT HISTORICAL RECORDS THREATENED BY TROPICAL CYCLONES IN THE FUTURE

The future of tropical cyclones is a matter of concern and extensive study, with focus on their climatology, intensity and frequency. Projections indicate less frequent but more intense tropical cyclones (Chand et al., 2022), which aligns with what has been observed in the recent years. For example, in 2013, super-typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines caused more than 6,000 deaths and $15 billion in damages (NDRRMC, 2013). This study aims to identify regions exposed to hazards induced by tropical cyclones under climate change that were not recorded in the historical period.
