Lightning activity accompanying tropical cyclones

2022
<p>We used the World Wide Lightning Location Network and cyclones tracks from the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship to study properties of lightning strokes occurring in tropical cyclones. We studied 429 cyclones occurring from 2012 to 2017 in both hemispheres with more than 11 million lightning strokes found within

Layered lightning activity

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1981
The horizontal extent of lightning channels reconstructed acoustically from several storms is significantly larger than the vertical extent. Furthermore, an examination of all the reconstructed lightning structure in each of three storms, one in Arizona, one in Colorado, and one in Florida, shows that the lightning activity tends to occur in layers 2–3

Lightning activity on Jupiter

Icarus, 1982
Photographic observations of the nightside of Jupiter by the Voyager 1 spacecraft show the presence of extensive lightning activity. Detection of whistlers by the plasma wave analyzer confirms the optical observations and implies that many flashes were not recorded by the Voyager camera because the intensity of the flashes was below the threshold ...

Solar Activity, Lightning and Climate

Surveys in Geophysics, 2011
The physics of solar forcing of the climate and long term climate change is summarized, and the role of energetic charged particles (including cosmic rays) on cloud formation and their effect on climate is examined. It is considered that the cosmic ray-cloud cover hypothesis is not supported by presently available data and further investigations ...

When Lightning Strikes: Sports and Recreational Activities Safety

Current Sports Medicine Reports, 2023
Abstract Lightning strikes and their sequela are well-known sources of injury associated with sports and outdoor activities. While mortality is relatively rare and has steadily decreased over the years, the potentially catastrophic effects make knowledge about lightning strike injuries continually relevant.

Lightning protection of trasmission lines: analysis of lightning activity in Italian territory

2019 IEEE International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering and 2019 IEEE Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Europe (EEEIC / I&CPS Europe), 2019
Scientific community is focusing on the effect of lightning activity on people safety and infrastructures security because of the dangerous consequences of this kind of phenomenon. Each study of safety and security associated to lightning flashes needs as input reliable data in terms of lightning activity related to the analyzed territory.

Thunderstorms, lightning and solar activity—Middle Europe

Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2001
Abstract Thunderstorm–solar activity relationships have been studied in the past, mostly with records of audible thunder correlated with sunspot number (R). Our study is new in two aspects: firstly, it uses measured lightning frequency, and secondly, these records are correlated not only with R but also with other parameters characterising solar ...

Isolated breakdown activity in Swedish lightning

Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2008
The initial breakdown processes or preliminary breakdown (PB) processes are generally associated with either cloud or cloud-ground lightning flashes, and hence have been studied mainly in connection with those subsequent activities. However, it has been observed in the summer thunderstorms of Sweden that there are breakdown processes that may not ...
