Modeling of Elves Doublets Based on Variations of the Lightning Return Stroke Current
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.Abstract Elves are transient luminous events appearing above thunderclouds. They are produced by high peak current lightning events. They occasionally appear as doublets or in general as multiplets. We model elves doublets by setting the temporal and spatial variations of the return stroke current amplitude and we show that our modeling results are ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.Abstract Two supercell thunderstorms that occurred in Del Rio and Burkburnett, Texas in the spring of 2020 produced greater than 5 cm diameter hailstones. Fourteen hailstones, eight from Del Rio and six from Burkburnett, were cut in half along the maximum principal axis. Half the hailstone was dissected at 0.5 cm increments, providing 198 subsamples of

On the Charge Distribution in a Thundercloud and the Role of Induced Ions [PDF]
, 1991 P(論文)Through the calculation of the electric fields under some static model thunderclouds, it is investigated how space charges are distributed when a lightning strikes the ground, and also the role of each charged region is investigated.

A Microscopic Mechanism for the Separation of Charge in Thunderstorms
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.Abstract We propose a plausible microscopic mechanism for charge transfer during rebounding collisions between ice crystals and graupel within thunderstorms. The key concept is that charge is transferred through the diffusional transport of H+ ions across the ice‐ice contact junction during collisions.

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Satellite remote sensing is widely used to monitor lake surface water temperature (LSWT) due to its global coverage and relatively long‐term record. A common practice in previous studies is to exclude observations during cloudy periods, as most satellite‐based LSWT products rely on optical sensors that cannot penetrate cloud cover.
