Importantly, the cycle is part of a naturally occurring pattern and is not in any way related to global warming activity, concluded NOAA.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.heartland.org/Article.cfm?artId=18444"><P>The NOAA study affirms the findings of most hurricane researchers.
