Microbursts are impulsive (<1s) injections of very energetic to relativistic electrons (energies from a few keV to MeV) into Earth’s atmosphere. They are important because they may represent a major loss process for the outer radiation belt (Ripoll ...

Short-duration Electron Precipitation Studied by Test Particle Simulation [PDF]
Energy spectra of electron microbursts from 170 keV to 340 keV have been measured by the solid-state detectors aboard the low-altitude (680 km) polar-orbiting Korean STSAT-1 (Science and Technology SATellite).

Anisotropic pitch angle distribution of ~100 keV microburst electrons in the loss cone: measurements from STSAT-1 [PDF]
Electron microburst energy spectra in the range of 170 keV to 360 keV have been measured using two solid-state detectors onboard the low-altitude (680 km), polar-orbiting Korean STSAT-1 (Science and Technology SATellite-1).

Observations of Radiation Belt Losses Due to Cyclotron Wave-Particle Interactions [PDF]
Electron loss to the atmosphere plays a critical role in driving dynamics of the Earths Van Allen radiation belts and slot region. This is a review of atmospheric loss of radiation belt electrons caused by plasma wave scattering via Doppler-shifted ...

Relativistic Microburst Scale Size Induced by a Single Point‐Source Chorus Element
Relativistic microbursts are impulsive, sub‐second precipitation bursts of relativistic electrons. They are one of the main loss mechanisms of outer radiation belt electrons, and are driven by chorus waves.

Microbursts at Meter-Decameter Wavelengths [PDF]
A statistical analysis of Clark Lake microbursts was performed using a data base consisting of ~ 100 bursts. The results are: (1) Microburst sources are well correlated with coronal streamers and active regions. (2) The peak brightness temperature (T^) of the microbursts is in the range 6 × 105 K to 6 × 107 K (see Fig.

Relativistic microburst storm characteristics: Combined satellite and ground-based observations [PDF]
We report a comparison of Solar Anomalous Magnetospheric Particle Explorer detected relativistic electron microbursts and short-lived subionospheric VLF perturbations termed FAST events, observed at Sodankyl Geophysical Observatory, Finland, during 2005.

Comparative analysis of damage surveys and observations with two different types of wind disaster
Damage survey, conventional observations and Doppler weather radar data are used to analyze the tornado occurred on 8 June 2018 at Nanhai District in Foshan City and microbursts occurred on 18 August 2016 at Leizhou County in Zhangjiang City.
