Wilson's Atmospheric Electron Accelerator: A Centennial Perspective

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract As of the time of writing this letter, we mark the centennial of Wilson's runaway electrons proposed in 1925. Owing to instrumentation limitations, Wilson and his students could not detect the particles anticipated by theory Chilingarian et al. (2025, https://doi.org/10.1029/2024jd042350).

The narrow-line quasar NAB 0205+024 observed with XMM-Newton

, 2004
The XMM-Newton observation of the narrow-line quasar NAB 0205+024 reveals three striking differences since it was last observed in the X-rays with ASCA. Firstly, the 2-10 keV power-law is notably steeper.

Recovery curves of the lightning discharges occurring in the dissipation stage of thunderstorms [PDF]

, 2013
Measurements of atmospheric electric field made below two thunderstorms show that all lightning discharges occurring in the dissipating stage of a thunderstorm occur at almost the same value of the pre-discharge electric field at the ground surface.

Detecting Thunderstorm‐Related High‐Energy Phenomena in Weak Signals

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Gamma‐ray glows (GRGs) are high‐energy events associated with thunderstorms, characterized by an enhancement of the high‐energy background radiation lasting from a few seconds to several minutes. They are typically detected near their sources by balloons, aircraft, mountain‐based observatories, or at sea level in regions where thunderstorms ...

Politics of Narration: Mythical Discourse in Kie’s Son of the Thundercloud [PDF]

University of Bucharest Review. Literary and Cultural Studies Series, 2018
Writers are committed to the power of proof, reasoning and technical solutions to every possible problem faced by humanity. Convincing through proof and argument is construed to be the presentation of reality.

Outbreak of Negative Narrow Bipolar Events in Two Mid-Latitude Thunderstorms Featuring Overshooting Tops

Remote Sensing, 2021
Lightning discharges are the electrical production in thunderclouds. They radiate the bulk of radio signals in the very low-frequency and low-frequency (VLF/LF) that can be detected by ground-based receivers.

In-flight measurements of energetic radiation from lightning and thunderclouds

, 2015
In the certification procedure aircraft builders carry out so-called icing tests flights, where the zero degree Celsius altitude is deliberately sought and crossed in or under thunderstorms. Airbus also used these flights to test ILDAS, a system aimed to

Anomalous electric field changes and high flash rate beneath a thunderstorm in northeast India [PDF]

, 2010
In spite of many experimental and theoretical studies the relationships between storm dynamics, severe weather, and lightning activity have been least understood.

The Life Cycle of a Stratospheric Smoke Plume as Seen From EarthCARE—Tracking a Plume From Canada to Europe

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract At the end of May 2025, extremely strong wildfires in Canada produced several pyrocumulonimbus clouds lifting the smoke particles up to the lower stratosphere. Stratospheric aerosol optical depths of more than 2.5 were observed by the ATmospheric LiDAR (ATLID) onboard of the Earth Cloud, Aerosol and Radiation Explorer (EarthCARE) satellite ...

Deforestation Impacts on Clouds and Precipitation Over Borneo Vary Across the Diurnal Cycle

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The impact of tropical deforestation on clouds and precipitation remains uncertain due to complex interactions between land and atmospheric processes on convective and mesoscales. Here, we examine convective‐scale processes controlling the short‐term atmospheric response to deforestation over Borneo using multi‐day large eddy simulations ...
