Some Recent Key Aspects of the DC Global Electric Circuit
The DC global electric circuit, GEC, was conceived by C.T.R. Wilson more than a century ago. Powered by thunderstorms and electrified shower clouds, an electric current I ~1 kA flows up into the ionosphere, maintaining the ionospheric potential V ~250 kV

Local Atmospheric Electric Circuit Model Using Electrostatic Pickups on a 375kV Transmission Line [PDF]
: The global atmospheric electric circuit is based on a model of electrical connection between the earth and the ionosphere (waveguide), capable of representing the flow of electric current in this waveguide.

The Global Electric Circuit and Global Seismicity
Basing on the catalogue of earthquakes with a magnitude of M ≥ 4.5 for the period 1973–2017, a UT variation with an amplitude of ~10% in the number of earthquakes is revealed and compared with a UT variation in the ionospheric potential (IP) with an ...

The effect of a gamma ray flare on Schumann resonances [PDF]
We describe the ionospheric modification by the SGR 1806-20 gamma flare (27 December 2004) seen in the global electromagnetic (Schumann) resonance. The gamma rays lowered the ionosphere over the dayside of the globe and modified the Schumann resonance

A new link between El Niño—Southern Oscillation and atmospheric electricity
The global electric circuit (GEC) is a unique atmospheric system driven by the global distribution of thunderstorms and electrified shower clouds. The GEC unites electric fields and currents in the entire atmosphere and is characterized by the permanent ...

Brief Communication: Earthquake–cloud coupling through the global atmospheric electric circuit [PDF]
We illustrate how coupling could occur between surface air and clouds via the global electric circuit – through Atmospheric Lithosphere–Ionosphere Charge Exchange (ALICE) processes – in an attempt to develop a physical understanding of the possible ...
