Abstract

Sixteen tropical cyclones occurred in the Australian region during the 1979-80 tropical cyclone season. The season had a very early start with a low latitude cyclone in the Indian Ocean in late August 1979. Thereafter, the remaining fifteen cyclones occurred between December 1979 and March 1980. While a few were quite intense at landfall and caused considerable monetary losses — mainly to large mining ventures — there were no major disasters.
