The total effects of Larry were nearly A$1 billion in damage and one fatality. It destroyed the region's banana plantations. Consequently Australians had to pay astronomical prices for bananas for around a year. North Queensland's tropical fruit, sugar cane and avocado farm industries also suffered, and took some time to rebuild. Environmental effects included the following: * damage to the Great Barrier Reef, by way of broken and dislodged coral, damaged vegetation and beaches * fish and marine animals suffocated when their gills were filled with mud which resulted from the turbulent waters * extensive damage to rainforests, particularly rainforest remnants (which were less protected), not only by way of damaged trees and animal habitats. but by the intrusion of pervasive weeds and non-native plants from other areas; these weeds, such as Miconia, smother native plants and alter the structure of the environment
The impact of Cyclone Larry on the people was devastating for some. People have been psychologically traumatised due to any of the following: * The destruction of buildings, resulting in any number of people suddenly finding themselves homeless. * People had to leave the area which means they suffer the loss of everything they have ever known - home, their possessions, sometimes pets, even some family members. This causes immeasurable grief. * Livelihoods were lost. The wiping out of banana crops and other farming industries meant some families were left without an income with which to even rebuild.
Some of the environmental effects of Cyclone Larry were:
In recent years, Australia has experienced a diverse range of disasters - natural and man-made, onshore and offshore. The Australian Government has responded by providing assistance to adversely-affected Australians. While disasters are not a new phenomenon and will continue to occur, learning from these events can make governments more resilient and responsive to their occurrence.
The primary role for protecting the community and property in response to domestic disasters rests with state and territory governments. The Australian Government supports the states and territories in recovery response through the provision of a range of programs and tailored assistance measures.
In November 2005, the Australian Government Disaster Recovery Committee (AGDRC) was established to provide advice on, and coordinate implementation of, tailored disaster recovery assistance measures to Australian individuals, families and communities in response to disasters. The Department of Families, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs chairs the AGDRC which comprises 27 individual agencies.
Cyclone Wanda itself caused no deaths. It was a relatively low-category cyclone (the actual category does not seem to be recorded anywhere) but its beiggest claim to fame was the amount of rain it dumped on the Brisbane catchment area, contributing significantly to the Brisbane floods of January 1974. These floods resulted in 14 deaths.
Cyclone Larry crossed the coast near the North Queensland town of Innisfail.
Cyclones are essentially caused by a combination of warm ocean temperatures, high humidity and low wind shear, which means differences in wind velocity and direction at different heights. If the wind shear is high, it can pull a cyclone apart. Low wind shear increases the chances of the cyclone developing. Cyclone Larry was caused by these factors, in particular, the warm waters of the Coral Sea, where it formed.
they effected the building peoples live and injurey and plants, crops and food.!
The main destructive effects of tropical cyclones include heavy rain, strong winds and large storm surges at landfall.Assuming you mean the weather formation, the effects can be as little as nothing (just as tornadoes may never touch down and do no damage) but they can also cause massive destruction.A hurricane is another name for a tropical cyclone (although in other places a cyclone is another name for a hurricane), so most people are aware of the devastation Hurricane Katrina caused. Massive flooding and houses destroyed, all that good stuff.
Cyclone Larry hit the north coast of Queensland.
Cyclone Larry crossed the Queensland coast on 7 April 2006.

Cyclone Larry affected the wildlife of the areas it hit. It especially effected the Daintree Rainforest, which resulted in visitors not being allowed into the Rainforest.
When still out at sea, severe Tropical Cyclone Larry was a Category 5 cyclone. By the time Larry made landfall in North Queensland near Innisfail, it was a Category 4 with wind gusts reaching 240 km/h (150 mph).
