Well, it was briefly discussed. But anyways, surge is when the airflow is stopped (ie throttle closes) and the compressed air left in the system has nowhere to go, and it almost instantly stops the turbos compressor wheel. It may not be the best description, but you get the idea. Surge puts stress on the turbo.
