The correct answer is Enhanced Fujita. The Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale is used to rank the severity of tornadoes based on the damage they cause to buildings and vegetation. The other options listed relate to different types of scales: the Richter scale measures earthquake magnitude, the Saffir-Simpson scale is used for hurricanes, and the Beaufort index measures wind speed and sea conditions.
