The local impact of typhoons on economic activity in China: A view from outer space (2015, methodology): “…of the wind speed experienced on physical grounds, and it is for this reason that previous studies have simply used the cubic power of wind speed as a destruction proxy.15 However, there is likely to be a threshold below which there is unlikely to be any substantial physical damage (Emanuel 2011).”
Dependence of US hurricane economic loss on maximum wind speed and storm size (2014, background): “…comprehensive hurricane loss model should consider all these factors, although empirical models usually include a limited number of predictors for macro-scale assessment of hurricane damages resulted from climate and socio-economic changes (e.g., Nordhaus 2010, Emanuel 2011, Mendelsohn et al 2012).”
