Damage Assessment of the 2020 Monroe, Louisiana, Tornado Using Different Remote-Sensing Methods and Enhanced Fujita Scales

Abstract

AbstractIn 2014, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the Structural Engineering Institute (SEI) and the American Meteorological Society (AMS) undertook the effort of developing a standard for tornado wind speed estimation, which will ...Practical ApplicationsOngoing efforts to revise the EF-Scale toward ASCE/SEI/AMS standardization are expected to influence damage evaluations, and possibly wind speed estimation for future windstorm events. Using a draft of the revised EF-Scale in the new ...
