| Total Count | Total number of billion-dollar events from 2005-2010 | 1-5 | 6 | 7-11 | 12-73 |
| Duration of Exposure | Total duration of exposure to all billion-dollar events from 2005-2010 in days | 1-9 | 10-13 | 14-16 | 17-570 |
| Fatalities/Injuries | Total fatalities and injuries per capita due to hazard events in 2005-2010 | 0-4.70 | 4.70-6.42 | 6.44-14.60 | 14.93-528.49 |
| Property/Crops | Total property and crop losses per capita in dollar amounts due to hazard events in 2005-2010 | $5-$875 | $886-$2,241 | $2,286-$17,135 | $17,247-$272,961 |
| Monetized Score | Values of $4 million were assigned to each fatality and $600,000 to each injurya. Dollar amounts for fatalities per capita, injuries per capita, property losses per capita and crop losses per capita were added together, and participants were categorized into quartiles per losses in dollar amounts. | $12-$7,394,288 | $7,793,602-$18,154,956 | $18,257,898-$39,466,709 | $40,609,909-$1,115,979,402 |
| N (%) | |||||
| Level 0 (0) | Level 1 (1-2) | Level 2 (2-3) | |||
| Cumulative Score | For each participant, a score of one was assigned if they were categorized in the top quartile for each individual parameter of severity: fatalities per capita, injuries per capita, property losses per capita, crop losses per capita | 3514 (38) | 5407 (58) | 428 (5) | |
