“…Globally, there has been a positive trend in the intensity of tropical cyclones and trends in frequency occurrence since 1980 [52,53]. Tropical cyclone impacts include storm surges, landslides, coastal flooding, damage to coral reefs, sea grass beds and critical infrastructure, damage to the economy especially agriculture and tourism [54,55].…”

Many economies in small tropical islands are built on tourism, using their sun, sea and sand to entice visitors. However, climate variability and climate change are affecting these small islands, threatening many livelihoods and their fragile economies. There is limited information on the adaptation strategies and perception of climate change within key sectors of these economies, including the accommodation sector. Hence a study which examines the experiences of Antigua Island in the Caribbean and Efate Island in the South Pacific. The uniqueness of this study is that there are few published articles on this topic especially those comparing two islands. This study found that whilst all hoteliers perceived changes in precipitation, temperature and sea level only a limited number implemented few adaptation measures. We conclude that there is need for government regulation of the accommodation sector as it relates to managing the impacts of climate change, to help build resilience within the sector and wider economy.

“…Territoires étudiés dans ce numéro spécial. 3 D'après les prévisions du GIEC, les cyclones ne seraient pas à l'avenir plus nombreux mais plus puissants même si le passé récent ne corrobore pas toujours cette tendance notamment dans le Pacifique ouest (Hoarau et al, 2018). Se pose également la question de l'élargissement en latitude de la zone concernée par ces phénomènes (Pilon et al, 2017).…”

“…Les premières images archivées remontant à la saison 1978, la ré-analyse a porté sur la période de 41 années . Un exemple d'application de la technique de Dvorak est détaillé par Hoarau et al (2018) sur un cyclone tropical du Pacifique Sud. Notre ré-analyse a été entreprise pour tous les ouragans de l'Atlantique Nord affichant un oeil sur l'imagerie satellitaire.…”
