Tropical Cyclones: Hazard Modelling and Risk Assessment

A tropical cyclone (or hurricane in North America, typhoon in Asia) is an intense tropical

low-pressure weather system where, in the southern hemisphere, winds circulate clockwise

around the centre. Tropical cyclone development is complex, but researchers have

identified three components of a tropical cyclone that make up the total cyclone hazard:

strong winds, intense rainfall and induced ocean effects including extreme waves, currents,

storm surge and resulting storm tide.
