About this document

Typhoon Effects: Landslides, Flooding, Surge by patriciomaryrose557 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Typhoons can cause landslides, flooding, and storm surges. Landslides occur when gravity overcomes the resisting forces of a slope, causing rock, earth, or debris to move down a slope suddenly or slowly over time. Flooding is when water overflows natural or artificial banks onto dry land. Storm surges are abnormal rises in water levels caused by tropical cyclones that occur along low-lying coastal areas.
