Female hurricanes are deadlier than male hurricanes [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 Significance Meteorologists and geoscientists have called for greater consideration of social science factors that predict responses to natural hazards. We answer this call by highlighting the influence of an unexplored social factor, gender-based expectations, on the human toll of hurricanes that are assigned gendered names.

HURRICANES AND HURRICANE TIDES
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1957 Most of the maximum tides of record between Cape Hatteras, N.C., and Brownsville, Tex., have been produced by tropical cyclones, or, as they are generally known in the United States, hurricanes. Some of the highest tides of record northward along the coast from Cape Hatteras to Cape Cod have been produced by hurricanes.
