The Cause And Effect Of Typhoons

A hurricane is formed over warm tropical oceans. A hurricane is a severe storm.Hurricanes happen in late summer or early fall. Hurricanes spread 70-90 miles wide. Hurricanes are found over warm tropical oceans.

Why was the typhoon so devastating, especially to a country that is prepared for (and has sustained) annual typhoons?

Effective disaster management is highly important when it comes to assisting in rescue and relief to affected. This does not only include post disaster rescue efforts but these disaster management activities should be proactive. They start right from taking preventive measures before the disaster actually occurs and goes on till the effected people are resettled back in their lives. This disaster management pertaining to human life is not only associated with physical well being but also focuses on psychological, emotional, and spiritual rehabilitation.

When disasters occur suddenly, the following days makes it difficult for people to get to work due to fallen trees or destroyed cars and home or roads flooded. By evaluating a given area or even country, can reduce these negative impacts by using risk identification, risk reduction and risk transfer. This is the important job of risk manager to do these risk assessments in order to better prepare for unfortunate events that will occur sometime in the future. There are public assistance programs set in place in the event of a disaster destroying a town or city for example.

On October 15th an earthquake killed nearly 90 people. In the Philippines killed nearly 200 and displacing tens of thousands of dollars. The quake wrecked about more than 45,000 homes. These earthquakes have affected many people, damaging homes and even lives and causes millions of dollars for repairs. The quake, the strongest to hit the disaster-prone country in recent years, struck Bohol on October 15th. Felt across several neighbouring provinces, more than 2,500 aftershock have rippled through the region since.(Documents

Hermine weakened while crossing from Florida into Georgia, but still produced sustained winds of 45 mph (72 km/h) at Savannah, with gusts to 58 mph (93 km/h).[77] Farther northeast, Folly Island, South Carolina, reported sustained winds of 44 mph (71 km/h) with gusts to 59 mph (95 km/h),[78] and the pier in Duck, North Carolina, reported sustained winds of 58 mph (93 km/h) with gusts to 73 mph (117 km/h).[79] Heavy rainfall occurred through the Carolinas, reaching 10.72 in (272 mm) in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.[80] At Norfolk International Airport, wind gusts reached 43 mph (69 km/h).[81] In Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, Hermine's passage left around 274,000 people without power.[40][42][82][83]

Disasters are bound to strike at a given time and they more often find us unaware, this is the sole reason why the majority of the disasters that happen are usually fatal and destructive. This then calls for the need to try as much as possible to prevent these disasters and in particular in our cities. This is due to the fact that in the cities there are large populations that live close to each other or work in offices crammed together hence the likelihood of a disaster turning absolutely fatal if and when it strikes. However, due to the inevitable nature of these disasters, it is upon us to make adequate preparations that can enable us to minimize the effects of the natural disasters as much as possible when and if they happen.

Hurricanes have affected the Caribbean islands for many centuries but particularly in the 19th century. During the 1840’s Cuba was affected by three hurricanes that all happened within four years of each other in 1842, 1844, and 1846. Many scholars have looked over these hurricanes in Cuba as not really having much of an in depth affect on Cuba’s life and history but just as being hurricanes. But Louis A. Pérez Jr. a professor and scholar, labeled these 19th century hurricanes as a “flash point” to look at Cuba’s history from multiple angles. saw the 1842, 1844, and 1846 hurricanes as being more than just storms by using multiple resources like the Archivo Nacional de Cubaa, Havana, encyclopedias, such as the Encyclopedia of Hurricanes, Typhoons, and Cyclones by David Longshore (New York, 1998), and descriptive chronologies by David L. Niddrie and David M. Ludlow to name a few. By reviewing and using all of these resources, Louis A. Pérez concluded that the 1840’s hurricanes had an effect on agriculture, social relations, and the overall national identity of Cuba.

2. Physiographic natural disasters: Southeast Asia is a realm of islands, peninsulas containing high mountains and deep valleys that is under constant threat from natural disasters. From earthquakes, tsunami, to volcano eruptions, this region has seen it all, including cyclones, floods, landslides, and other hazards. The Pacific Rim is part of the Ring of Fire, in 2004 a tsunami will 300,000 people, 1883 the Krakatau volcano erupted killing 30,000, and in 1815 the Tambora volcano erupted affecting the climate for 20 years. There is a widespread of casualities in this diverse region, putting a struggle on human survival.

Taking this objective into consideration, it is surprising that even though hurricane Katrina was a category 3 hurricane, and it was anticipated, more than 1800 individuals died (Thiede & Brown, 2013). Many factors have a role in not being able to prevent this natural disaster well ahead of time and therefore, they will be examined in the paper. They are but not limited to: failure of design, construction and maintenance of levees and flood walls, social and psychological rejection of the hurricane and poverty and limited education of residents in the affect areas (Thiede & Brown, 2013). Even though this natural disaster could have been prevented, it demonstrated the importance of taking practical decisions when a hurricane warning or watch is broadcasted (Melton et al., 2010). Overall, analyzing why hurricane Katrina was unavoidable is essential because it can educate people on how to practically respond to hurricanes and not disregard precautionary actions (Melton et al.,

Since meteorologists can foresee and track typhoons, individuals living in a storm's way can remain safe by propel arrangement, including a departure arrange, making a first aid kit with sustenance, water, and different supplies (keep in mind your pets), and in particular by listening to neighborhood powers on the most ideal approaches to remain

Increase urbanization, adverse weather incidence due to climate change, constant threats from terrorists, etc. calls for the need to re-evaluate our city risk analysis plan and risk communication plan. This will enable the city residents, and city businesses prepare for the adverse effects of disasters such as a hurricane. Due to the closeness of this city to the coastline, any serious hurricane incidence will have a serious damage to the city infrastructures such as airport and seaport facilities, oil refineries, military installation, and even create unforeseen contaminations. Knowing that it will not be possible to completely eradicate all the risks associated with natural disaster like a hurricane, there will be need to develop a risk

Philippines is an archipelago located in Southeast Asia near the equator. The Philippine archipelago consists of 7,107 islands divided into three major groups of islands which is Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. As of 2016 the Philippine population is estimated to about 102,624,209 (World Fact Book). The Philippine nationality is termed Filipino and its population is made up of various ethnic groups. The national language is called Tagalog, it also the name of the major ethnic group of the country. According to Philippine Statistic Authority the population of urban area accounts for 45.3% of the country’s total population (Urban-Rural Classification). In contrast, the population in rural area is comprised of 54.7% and considered to be the majority population of the entire country. The Philippine climate is predominantly tropical marine where wet season occurs from November to April and is caused by the northeast monsoon. Similarly, the second set of rainy season, is caused by the southwest monsoon during May to October (World Fact Book). Additionally, the Philippine economy has been relatively resilient to global economic struggles because the country is less exposed to troubled international securities. The lower dependence on exports is what makes the country relatively resilient, relying only domestic products, as well as large remittances from millions of migrant and overseas Filipino workers (World Fact Book). The existing account balance has

Every emergency or disaster, from a small house fire to a hurricane that devastates entire communities, have a distinct cycle. This is
