The Advertiser:  Queensland Government assures Cyclone Yasi victims help is on its way

Julia Gillard (Priminister of Australia at the time) had sent 4,000 troops from Townsville and 1500 soldiers in Brisbane assist people in distress in North Queensland. Ships brought 110 trucks of food and supplies. 120 SES volunteers, including some from Tasmania and Victoria, had come up to help with the cleanup.

Group and Organisation Response
SES had a big job on their hands to help victims through the storm. They had to invite the fire brigade to get involved. The Australian Defence Force also offered help.  $17 million was given out to people who can no longer work and approximately $457 million dollars were spent by the Government to help communities.

Cyclone Yasi formed by hot air that has come from the ocean and rises because of a low pressure system. As it rises, it is cooled, condensed and forms a cloud. Fast winds occur as a result of a high difference in pressure. When a area of high pressure reaches the atmosphere, it is forced to move wide. As it moves further wide, it starts to move in a spiral motion. This is how a Tropical Cyclone is formed.

Yasi affected tourism, and The Great Barrier Reef, with Holiday resorts on some islands totally destroyed. Cyclone Yasi wiped out banana crops which supplies 90 per cent of Australia's production. One third of Australia's sugar cane crop was also destroyed. Cyclone Yasi cost North Queensland around $3.6 billion. Homes were destroyed.

Environmental Impacts:
Cyclone Yasi destroyed the habitats of wildlife in the area including endangered animals, such as the mahogany gliders. Trees were destroyed, which impacted the ecosystem and the food chain was affected. Tropical cyclones produce huge waves, which crush coral reefs.
