Apologies for not being there, I’m at a conference in Paris of the OECD [Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development] environment ministers. We recognise that there are increasing challenges facing our reefs, our rainforests and our fragile coastline. Of course, one of our greatest challenges is climate change, with some of the adverse impacts already evident in this area such as the mass bleaching of corals, declining rainforest biodiversity and coastal erosion and inundation in the Torres Strait island region, to name just a few. These threats, combined with declining water quality and increasing population, present a real collective challenge to us all. The Australian Government

  • Known Impacts of Tropical Cyclones, East Coast, 1858 – 2008 by Mr Jeff Callaghan Retired Senior Severe Weather Forecaster, Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane
    ARCHIVE: Known Impacts of Tropical Cyclones, East Coast, 1858 – 2008 By Mr Jeff Callaghan Retired Senior Severe Weather Forecaster, Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane The date of the cyclone refers to the day of landfall or the day of the major impact if it is not a cyclone making landfall from the Coral Sea. The first number after the date is the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) for that month followed by the three month running mean of the SOI centred on that month. This is followed by information on the equatorial eastern Pacific sea surface temperatures where: W means a warm episode i.e. sea surface temperature (SST) was above normal; C means a cool episode and Av means average SST Date Impact January 1858 From the Sydney Morning Herald 26/2/1866: an article featuring a cruise inside the Barrier Reef describes an expedition’s stay at Green Island near Cairns. “The wind throughout our stay was principally from the south-east, but in January we had two or three hard blows from the N to NW with rain; one gale uprooted some of the trees and wrung the heads off others. The sea also rose one night very high, nearly covering the island, leaving but a small spot of about twenty feet square free of water.” Middle to late Feb A tropical cyclone (TC) brought damaging winds and seas to region between Rockhampton and 1863 Hervey Bay. Houses unroofed in several centres with many trees blown down. Ketch driven onto rocks near Rockhampton. Severe erosion along shores of Hervey Bay with 10 metres lost to sea along a 32 km stretch of the coast.

While I have endured numerous challenges, I have also gained so much more in experiences along the way – there have been so many wonderful people that I had the fortune to meet through tutoring, work and research. Firstly, I would like to acknowledge my supervisors for their support and contributions to experimental design and editorial advice. In particular I would like to thank Kirsten Heimann, apart from her intellectual guidance and support, she has provided emotional, financial, mentoring and friendship over the years prior and during this research – thank you. I would also like to thank Garry Russ and Leone Bielig for the guidance and the supportive chats that kept me sane towards the end. Out in the field the support and interest of the then managers, Kylie and Rob at Orpheus Island Research Station was greatly appreciated.
