The influence of typhoon

The influence of typhoon is very extensive, covering many aspects such as economy, society and ecological environment. Typhoons are usually accompanied by strong winds, heavy rains and storm surges. These bad weather conditions will cause serious damage to buildings, infrastructure and farmland. Especially in coastal areas, storm surges may lead to seawater backflow, further increasing the risk of coastline erosion.

Secondly, typhoons usually cause floods. Heavy rain may lead to flooding of rivers, lakes and reservoirs, waterlogging in cities and flooding of farmland, resulting in devastating losses. Floods may also damage water supply and sanitation facilities, making residents face drinking water difficulties and sanitation problems. In addition, the arrival of the typhoon will also have an impact on agriculture. Heavy rains and floods may cause crops to suffer.
