'Record' is OK The real problem is finding a good translation for "energêticos".

historical record of severe weather events

I would use 'historical record' to give additional clarity due to the number of uses of the word record in English. Recording is not correct here.

My feeling is it would be best to leave it as historical record of severe weather events in the bay of Cadiz. You could perhaps insert maritime before the word weather. The 'Durante epocas historicas' is already understood.
Note from asker:
So, would it be "Historical record of severe weather/marine events... during historical times"? Thanks
Cheers!

agree Robert Carter : Just "record" is okay for the term per se, although your complete translation of the phrase is spot on.

(long) record of events


'Record' is fine. But it would make more sense with a little embellishment, like adding 'long'.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Carol Gullidge : Agree that the real problem is with energético, but embellishment of the ST is always a no-no
