How can typhoon affect our forest?

The typhoons are the impacts that typhoons have on the areas they move through. The main destructive impacts include heavy rain, strong wind, large storm surges at landfall, and tornadoes. How devastating a typhoon is depends mainly on its intensity, how big it is, and where it impacts. Typhoons 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 impacts can be sensed over time by studying the concentration of the Oxygen-18 isotope within caves near the shore.

After the typhoon has passed, devastation 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 typhoons. Despite their devastating effects, typhoons 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.
