The awesome display of power that is unleashed by many of the world's natural disasters has aroused both terror and curiosity foe centuries. This series of books looks at the history of natural disasters and their effects on mankind and the environment. Tidal Waves have nothing to do with tides. They are caused by earthquakes on the sea bed, and they can crash on land causing widespread devastation. Floods can prevail anywhere on Earth and no part of the world can be considered immune to their devastating effect. Dramatic pictures illustrate this book which explains all aspects of these destructive powers. Famine is a widespread problem that can occur in any corner of the developing world. Almost one third of the land on Earth is prone to drought, and animal plagues can lead to famine and devastation. This book explores their causes and effects.

This book introduces children to nature at its most powerful, showing not only the damage that floods and tidal waves can inflict on people and property, but also ways in which we are able to forecast weather to minimise damage. The book begins with an introduction describing the forces of nature, how they begin and what makes them grow stronger. The book then goes on to show how and where disasters occur, other weather phenomena associated with the same natural forces and how we track and respond to them. There are also facts included for example: flash floods in deserts can cause more damage than heat.

Abstract: Abstract of Dissertation Tidal Flooding and Its Research in Hong Kong Submitted by Wu Chun Ping For the degree of Master of Arts at the University of Hong Kong September 2003 Typhoons are always remembered by citizens in Hong Kong. Among them, Wanda in 1962 is the most notorious one. Extensive damage was caused by gales and the huge waves induced. Eastern New Territories along the shores of the Tolo Harbour was devastated by tidal flooding. Fishermen and farmers suffered a lot. However, Wanda was not the only destructive typhoon. In 1874, 1906, 1923 and 1937, exceptionally high waves were also recorded. The disasters due to tidal flooding brought by them were not lighter than that of Wanda. The huge tidal waves during typhoons are related to storm surge. The Royal Observatory started research into the subject in 1950. Statistical approaches were used to investigate the phenomenon at the early stage. Due to the large-scale reclamation projects of new town developments in 1970's, research in the field was accelerated. With the introduction of computer technology, storm surge numerical modelling was first carried out in 1976. A storm surge forecasting system using nomograms derived from the modelling results was established in 1978. The system combined tidal prediction with a tide measurement network to form a storm surge monitoring and tidal flooding warning system in Hong Kong.
