Typhoon Havens Handbook for the Western Pacific and Indian Oceans. Change 2.

Abstract

This publication is a compilation of many typhoon-haven studies of ports and harbors in the western Pacific and Indian Ocean. Some of the studies, originally published in long form by the Naval Environmental Prediction Research Facility, have been restructured and condensed for this compilation; others have been prepared directly for this condensation format. This publication is designed to serve as a decision-making aid for commanders, ship captains, and ship routing personnel regarding typhoons that threaten the ports discussed. (Author)
