|a 4.4. Extended Recontructions of Past Climate Using Weather Models Initialized with Homogenous Surface Observations Would Help Improve Our Understanding of Strong Extratropical Cyclones and other Aspects of Climate Variability4.5. The creation of Annually-Resolved, Regional-Scale Reconstructions of the Climate for the Past 2,000 Years Would Help Improve Our Understanding of Very Long-Term Regional Climate Variability ; 4.6. Improvements in Our Understanding of the Mechanisms that Govern Hurricane Intensity Would Lead to Better Short- and Long-Term Predictive Capabilities.
