b'
This conversation with\\xa0 Shahin Dashtgard, earth science professor at Simon Fraser University, is about tropical cyclones and how they are recorded in the rock record.\\xa0 It is based on 7 years of research and knowledge published in 5 papers - including Shahin E. Dashtgard, Ludvig L\\xf6wemark, Romain Vaucher, Yu-Yen Pan, Jessica E. Pilarczyk, and S\\xe9bastien Castelltort's recent publication \\u201cTropical cyclone deposits in the Pliocene Taiwan Strait: Processes, examples, and conceptual model\\u201d.\\xa0 Some highlights include discussing how the stages of a tropical cyclone are preserved in the sediments.\\xa0
What are tropical cyclones and how are they different than hurricanes, typhoons, tropical depressions, and tropical storms? What are the depositional characteristics of a tropical cyclone?\\xa0 What do tropical cyclones look like in a strait?
