A tropical cyclone usually happens in various parts of the Pacific Ocean and affects regions of Mexico, south-east Asia, north Australia and the south Pacific islands. In Queensland, cyclones usually happen in the north-east between Port Douglas and Maryborough. In Australia cyclone season runs from November 1 to 30 April, but most cyclones happen between December and April. About 10 cyclones develop over the waters each year and six of these cross the coast.
Planting mangroves cannot reduce the intensity of the cyclones themselves but it can reduce the size of the storm surge, which usually causes the majority of the damage and fatalities.
Yes. Tropical cyclones (the generic term hurricanes, tropical storms, typhoons etc) produce large amounts of rain. This can bring relief to drought-stricken areas. The rain can also clear pollutants out of the air. Tropical cyclones are also one of several systems that bring heat from the tropics to the middle and sometimes higher latitudes. This helps keep the tropics from getting to hot and temperate areas from getting too cold.

The main effects of tropical cyclones include heavy rain, strong wind, large storm surges at landfall, and tornadoes. The destruction from a tropical cyclone depends mainly on its intensity, its size, and its location. Tropical cyclones act to remove forest canopy as well as change the landscape near coastal areas, by moving and reshaping sand dunes and causing extensive erosion along the coast.
Hurricanes and typhoons occur in tropical areas, but can move into extratropical areas as well. There are different types of cyclone, however. Tropical cyclones (hurricanes, typhoons, tropical storms and tropical depressions) form in tropical regions but extratropical and polar lows are cyclones as well.
Cyclones can cause singificant erosion in coastal areas.
The most dangerous type of cyclone is a tropical cyclone such as a typhoon or hurricane. Tropical cyclones develop by feeding on the moisture that evaporates from warm ocean water. Moisture they cannot get over land. Upon hitting land these storm systems rapidly lose strength, so their worst impacts are usually confined to coastal areas.

It floods the land with saline water
In the Pacific they are called typhoons. Generically, hurricanes and typhoons are both tropical cyclones. A tropical cyclone is the generic term for a non-frontal, synoptic scale, low-pressure system over tropical or sub-tropical waters with organized convection (i.e. thunderstorm activity) and definite cyclonic surface wind circulation.
Yes a tropical cyclone can develop but you wouldn't know till you saw it. They may be common in some areas but not all. But that is what i am guessing.

Tropical cyclones act to remove forest canopy as well as change the landscape near coastal areas, by moving and reshaping sand dunes and causing extensive erosion along the coast. Even well inland, heavy rainfall can lead to mudslides and landslides in mountainous areas. Their effects can be sensed over time by studying the concentration of the Oxygen-18 isotope within caves within the vicinity of cyclones' paths. After the cyclone has passed, devastation often continues. Standing water can cause the spread of disease, and transportation or communications infrastructure may have been destroyed, hampering clean-up and rescue efforts. Nearly two million people have died globally due to tropical cyclones. Despite their devastating effects, tropical cyclones are also beneficial, by potentially bringing rain to dry areas and moving heat from the tropics poleward. Out at sea, ships take advantage of their known characteristics by navigating through their weaker, western half.

No, they exist in the tropics where there is no conflict between air masses. Only mid-latitude cyclones are produced by this conflict. Tropical cyclones are perturbations in pressure which develop into areas of low pressure, fed by the latent heat of evaporating ocean water.
