Corona Discharges Glow on Trees Under Thunderstorms
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.Abstract Coronae, which are weak electrical discharges, have long been hypothesized to form on trees under thunderstorms, though never directly observed, characterized, or quantified. Using a newly developed instrument that measures ultraviolet emissions from coronae, the first direct observations and quantifications of coronae are presented for two ...
