    "abstract": "Global warming due to the increasing concentration of greenhouse gases has\nbecome a great concern and has been linked to increased hurricane activity\nassociated with higher sea surface temperatures with conflicting views. Our\nobservational results based on long term trends of sea surface temperatures\nreveal that the anomaly reached a record 0.8 C in the Gulf of Mexico in August\n2005 as compared to previous years and may have been responsible for the\nintensification of the devastating Hurricane Katrina into a category 5\nhurricane that hit the Southern coast of United States severely impacting the\nlow lying city of New Orleans and the surrounding areas. In most intensifying\nstorms, air-sea interaction is the major contributing factor and here we show\nhow air-sea interactions might have affected Katrinas rapid intensification in\nthe Gulf.",
