A Thunderstorm Cloud Point Charge Localization Method Based on CEEMDAN and SG Filtering

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
The current thunderstorm monitoring methods ignore the nonlinear and non-stationary characteristics of atmospheric electric field signals, which has a negative effect on the monitoring results. Based on complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition

The Illumination of Thunderclouds by Lightning: 4. Volumetric Thunderstorm Imagery

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2022
Optical instruments such as the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) detect lightning based on transient changes in cloud illumination. The horizontal location of lightning is determined from the coordinates of the pixels on the imaging array illuminated

Observation of thundercloud-related gamma rays and neutrons in Tibet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
During the 2010 rainy season in Yangbajing (4300 m above sea level) in Tibet, China, a long-duration count enhancement associated with thunderclouds was detected by a solar-neutron telescope and neutron monitors installed at the Yangbajing Comic Ray ...

Influence of ion attachment on the vertical distribution of the electric field and charge density below a thunderstorm [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1994
A numerical model called PICASSO [Production d'Ions Corona Au Sol Sous Orage (French) and Production of Corona Ions at the Ground Beneath Thundercloud (English)], previously designed, is used to describe the evolution of the principal electrical ...

A Numerical Study of Aerosol Effects on Electrification with Different Intensity Thunderclouds

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
Numerical simulations are performed to investigate the effect of varying CCN (cloud condensation nuclei) concentration on dynamic, microphysics, electrification, and charge structure in weak, moderate, and severe thunderstorms.

Electromagnetic atmosphere-plasma coupling: the global atmospheric electric circuit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A description is given of the global atmospheric electric circuit operating between the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere. Attention is drawn to the huge range of horizontal and vertical spatial scales, ranging from 10−9 m to 1012 m, concerned with the ...

Classification of Hydrometeors Using Measurements of the Ka-Band Cloud Radar Installed at the Milešovka Mountain (Central Europe)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
In radar meteorology, greater interest is dedicated to weather radars and precipitation analyses. However, cloud radars provide us with detailed information on cloud particles from which the precipitation consists of.
