Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Atlantic hurricane activity has increased since the mid-1990s. The leading candidate proposed by researchers to explain that trend is the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO). The AMO is a 25 to 40-year oscillation in water temperatures, with positive values corresponding to increased Atlantic hurricane activity. The current positive AMO phase began around 1995.
