Simply put, four-momentum transfer is the special relativistic
spacetime analog of classical (three-) momentum transfer. In
classical physics, two bodies can interact and exchange momentum in
three spacial dimensions. In particle physics, strictly spatial
momentum vectors do not suffice. Instead we use four-momentum, a
Lorentz vector.
Four-momentum transfer is often referred to as Q^2 is particle
physics literature. An interaction that transfer a large amount of
four-momentum is a high Q^2 interaction.

Definition1/17
There is no scale specifically for measuring hurricane damage.
The Saffir-Simpson scale measure hurricanes based on wind speed,
which can be used to estimate what damage may occur.
The damage scale that does exist, the Fujita scale (in the U.S.
replaced with the Enhanced Fujita scale) is used exclusively to
rate tornadoes, not hurricanes.
