Development and application of an objective storm severity measure for the Northeast Atlantic region
An objective index for the estimation of storm severity has been developed, validated and applied to both reanalysis data and an AOGCM simulation for the Northeast Atlantic region. The index is based on the exceedance of local thresholds of the daily maximum wind speed. Positive trends for both the...
