Furious Winds and Parched Islands: Tropical Cyclones (1558-1970) and Droughts (1722-1987) in the Pacific - Softcover
The modern understanding of climate extremes in the vast Pacific Ocean has been hampered by an incomplete picture of the incidence of such extremes in the past For the first time in this book is given a largely complete account of extreme events tropical cyclones hurricanes and droughts culled from a myriad of sources ranging from whalers logs to missionary diaries as far back in time as written records extend This book is an essential reference for anyone interested in the nature and recurrence times of climate extremes in the Pacific Ocean It also provides fascinating insights into the historical impacts of extreme events on often highly vulnerable island populations and livelihoods and in doing so underscores their continuing vulnerability as they confront 21st century climate change
