Should it be that a key factor in hurricane development is submarine volcano's activity?

Question

Very warm water and air meets cold and high air and generates a hurricane. Hurricanes start they development in oceans. Should it be that underwater volcanoes make a major contribution to hurricane phenomenon?

Answer 1

No, the forming points of most hurricane do not correlate with submarine volcanic activity.  All a hurricane is doing is transferring heat from the tropics to the temperate regions of the earth. That is a function of the sun being closer to the equator than the temperate region. That makes for a temperature/ energy differential resulting in events such as hurricanes to transfer the energy.
