Structural and inundation impacts of tropical cyclones

Project type

Responsive disaster research

Project status

In progress

Tropical Cyclone Alfred was a significant natural hazard resulting in damage from flooding, strong winds and coastal erosion that will provide critical data to be captured and analysed in the immediate, short and longer-term.

Expert engineers and researchers from James Cook University’s Cyclone Testing Station were deployed to south-east Queensland to capture data in the immediate aftermath of Tropical Cyclone Alfred in March 2025.
