Climate extremes

an index of windstorm severity that sums the cube of wind speed exceedance over a local high percentile, weighted by population, as a proxy for storm losses.

In climate extremes, storm severity index refers to an index of windstorm severity that sums the cube of wind speed exceedance over a local high percentile, weighted by population, as a proxy for storm losses. This meaning comes from Klawa (2003) in Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences.[1]
