A statistical study over Europe of the relative locations of lightning and associated energetic burst of electrons from the radiation belt [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2016
The DEMETER (Detection of Electro-Magnetic Emissions Transmitted from Earthquake Regions) spacecraft detects short bursts of lightning-induced electron precipitation (LEP) simultaneously with newly injected upgoing whistlers. The LEP occurs within <

Preliminary Application of Long-Range Lightning Location Network with Equivalent Propagation Velocity in China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The equivalent propagation method adopts a variable propagation velocity in lightning location, minimizing the location error caused by various factors in the long-range lightning location network. To verify the feasibility of this method, we establish a

A source location algorithm of lightning detection networks in China [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2010
Fast and accurate retrieval of lightning sources is crucial to the early warning and quick repairs of lightning disaster. An algorithm for computing the location and onset time of cloud-to-ground lightning using the time-of-arrival (TOA) and azimuth ...

Asia-Pacific Lightning Location Network (APLLN) and Preliminary Performance Assessment

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Asia-Pacific Lightning Location Network (APLLN) is a lightning location system consisting of a series of very low-frequency signal detection sites. Since 2018, 16 detection sites have been deployed with an average baseline longer than 1000 km.

Lightning detection in planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lightning in planetary atmospheres is now a well-established concept. Here we discuss the available detection techniques for, and observations of, planetary lightning by spacecraft, planetary landers and, increasingly, sophisticated terrestrial radio ...

A performance assessment of the World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) via comparison with the Canadian Lightning Detection Network (CLDN) [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2010
The World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) uses globally-distributed Very Low Frequency (VLF) receivers in order to observe lightning around the globe. Its objective is to locate as many global lightning strokes as possible, with high temporal and

Whistler intensities above thunderstorms [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2010
We report a study of penetration of the VLF electromagnetic waves induced by lightning to the ionosphere. We compare the fractional hop whistlers recorded by the ICE experiment onboard the DEMETER satellite with lightning detected by the EUCLID ...
