The Fujita scale was created by Dr. Tetsuya Theodore Fujita, a Japanese-American meteorologist known for his research on severe storms and tornadoes. The scale, also known as the Fujita-Pearson scale, categorizes tornado intensity based on damage assessment.
The correct spelling of the term is "Fujita scale" (tornado rating scale named for scientist Tetsuya Fujita).
The Fujita scale is named after Dr. Tetsuya Fujita, a Japanese-American meteorologist who developed the scale in collaboration with Allen Pearson. Dr. Fujita pioneered research on tornado intensity and damage in the United States, leading to the creation of the scale to categorize tornadoes based on the damage they cause.
The Fujita scale, used to measure the strength of tornadoes, was developed by Tetsuya Theodore Fujita (1920-1998).Dr. Theodore Fujita first introduced the Fujita Scale in 1971 and was the main inventor, but Allen Pearson, head of the National Severe Storms Forecast Center in Kansas City, Missouri, (now known as the Storm Prediction Center) helped make additions He helped include the path width and path length into the version of the Fujita Scale which was relased in 1973.
EF stands for Enhanced Fujita, which is the name of the scale. It is adapted from the Fujita scale which was developed by Dr. Tetsuya Fujita in 1971.
He created the Fujita Scale in 1971, using the Lubbock tornado of 1970 as a model.
