Review: The Queensland coast is threatened by approximately two tropical cyclones on average each year. Tropical cyclones typically form in the Coral Sea and cause severe winds, storm surge, and extreme wave conditions over a wide area when they cross the coast. The Queensland Climate Change and Community Vulnerability to Tropical Cyclones project was completed through the combined efforts of the Queensland Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Natural Resources Mines and Energy, Department of Emergency Services, and the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (Queensland). Financial support was provided by the State Greenhouse Special Treasury Initiative (GSTI) and the Commonwealth/State Natural Disasters Risk Management Studies Program (NDRMSP).
