Follow this link to order this publication
Author(s) / Editor(s) Terry, J. P.
DescriptionThis book describes the behaviour of tropical cyclones in the South Pacific (including Australia) and investigates the broad range of disturbance effects these violent storms have on the physical environments of the islands that lie in their path and the people who live on them. It is the first book to link these two themes – the characteristics of cyclones and their landscape impacts.
