Tropical Cyclone Storm Segments

Description

The patterns and variability of hurricane tracks are an important indicator for scientists and emergency managers to assess risk and build resilience among coastal communities. The most complete archive of tracks is the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS), which was developed by the World Meteorological Organization, NOAA, and many others. A subset of North Atlantic and North Pacific records from 1988 to 2022 was extracted from the IBTrACS and amended with storm category values to generate this data product.
