Lightning flash properties derived from Lightning Mapping Array data

2014 International Conference on Lightning Protection (ICLP), 2014
in this paper size and duration of lightning flashes are examined. Data from the Ebro Valley Laboratory Lightning Mapping Array is used as reference. Additional data from the VLF/LF LINET network and meteorological radar is included. In order to simplify the complex geometry of a lightning flash, each flash is described by a confidence ellipse fitting ...

Spatio-Temporal Dimension of Lightning Flashes Based on Three-Dimensional Lightning Mapping Array [PDF]

Atmospheric Research, 2017
3D mapping system like the LMA - Lightning Mapping Array - are a leap forward in lightning observation. LMA measurements has lead to an improvement on the analysis of the fine structure of lightning, allowing to characterize the duration and maximum ...

A Spatiotemporal Lightning Risk Assessment Using Lightning Mapping Data

Weather, Climate, and Society, 2021
AbstractA lightning risk assessment for application to human safety was created and applied in 10 west Texas locations from 2 May 2016 to 30 September 2016. The method combined spatial lightning mapping data, probabilistic risk calculation adapted from the International Electrotechnical Commission Standard 62305-2, and weighted average interpolation to

Mapping lightning fatality risk

2014 International Conference on Lightning Protection (ICLP), 2014
A new method to calculate lightning fatality risk is presented. This new method uses GIS software to multiply lightning flash density and population density on a grid and display the results on a map. The method is verified against observed lightning fatalities in the United States and appears to work well.

Radar Precipitation Maps as Lightning Indicators

Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1978
Abstract Radar maps of precipitation at a height of 6 km have been studied for the thunderstorms of one July day. Regions on these maps within which the intensity level exceeds 30 dBZ (corresponding to a rainfall rate of 2.8 mm h−1) represent thunderstorms, some single-celled and some multi-celled.

Mapping lightning channels in a thunderstorm by radar

IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine, 2003
The state of Georgia has experienced a number of tornados that occur without warning, and, in several cases have caused fatalities. Researchers at the Severe Storms Research Center (SSRC) of the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), Georgia Institute of Technology are attempting to detect tornado formation within severe thunderstorms occurring in the

Engineers map volcanic lightning

IEEE Spectrum, 2009
Volcanic eruptions are often accompanied by spectacular bursts of lightning-Krakatoa, Mount St. Helens, and Vesuvius have provided some relatively recent examples- and yet these breathtaking bolts are not well understood. Obtaining insight into volcanic lightning, besides being of considerable scientific interest, could make it possible to get earlier ...

The RELAMPAGO Lightning Mapping Array: Overview and Initial Comparison with the Geostationary Lightning Mapper

Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2020
AbstractDuring November 2018–April 2019, an 11-station very high frequency (VHF) Lightning Mapping Array (LMA) was deployed to Córdoba Province, Argentina. The purpose of the LMA was validation of the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM), but the deployment was coordinated with two field campaigns.
