Abstract

In this investigation the subject of hurricanes is retaken; but this time only for the Caribbean Sea and in the month of October. To give an explanation to the variations that happen of interdecadal form in the frequency formation and intensification of hurricanes in this sea and the possible causes that cause them. A was analyzed a chronological series of 55 years (1951-2005) To detect the ralationships of greater and smaller cyclonal activity in the Caribbean in October, as well as a group of variables that could have some ralationships with that variability. The periods of high and low activity of formation and hurricane development in the Caribbean Sea have been determined by a series of variations in the oceanic and atmospheric conditions. The inactive period of the years from 1970 to 1994 was given by: low values of the Sea Superface temperature of the Caribbean Sea, a upper troposphere less cold than in the active periods, a predominance of the wind of the third quadrant in general for 200 hPa and 300 hPa levels, and westerly shear, that inhibited the hurricane formation
