Queensland Climate Change and Community Vulnerability to Tropical Cyclones

Ocean hazards assessment

Reporting on a joint project multi-agency investigation to assess the magnitude of the present and future ocean threat from tropical cyclones in Queensland, Australia and the vulnerability of coastal communities to extreme winds.

Storm tide frequency information, generated as part of this project, is available for a number of locations along the Queensland coast. This information is available at http://mmu.jcu.edu.au/atlas/atlas.shtml under the "Tropical Cyclone Storm Tide and Wave Frequency Section".
