No typhoon hit Korea this summer. That’s not all good news

With no typhoon hitting Korea so far this year, concerns are growing that the prolonged lull could bring its own risks, from stressed marine ecosystems to stronger storms later on. Several typhoons have indirectly affected Korea in recent months, including Typhoon Jangmi, which skirted the southern part of the Korean Peninsula in June, but none has made landfall, according to the Korea Meteorological Administration. The decline in typhoons in and around Korea has persisted for several years. REA
