Finding Fireballs in Lightning: A Daily Pipeline to Find Meteors in Weather Satellite Data

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Weather satellite data contains a wealth of information well beyond its application to meteorology. The GOES weather satellite Geostationary Lightning Mapper instruments detect millions of lightning strikes per day. Within these “haystacks” of lightning are a handful of “needles” of bolides (aka bright fireballs, or exploding meteors). We have

Contemporary disasters may not kill more women than men: an empirical inquiry into sex‐differentiated fatalities in the twenty‐first century

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,

Thunderstorm total lightning activity behavior associated with transmission line trip events of power system

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
High-voltage transmission lines are susceptible targets for lightning strikes. It is an interesting topic how the trip event of transmission line is related to the area, location, and intensity of thunderstorms occurring at that time and that place ...
