Corona charge produced by thundercloud fields in grounded rods

open access: yes, 2012
Electrostatic fields below the thundercloud lead to the formation of glow charge from grounded objects. The charge accumulated after certain time can initiate or inhibit the called streamer formation and consequently the inception and development of ...

Politics of narration: mythical discourse in Kire’s son of the thundercloud

open access: yes, 2019
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.

Measuring Streamer Producing Thundercloud Electric Fields Using Radio Observations of Narrow Bipolar Events

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The strong very high frequency (VHF) radiation from compact intra‐cloud discharges (CIDs) is attributed to streamers. An analytical model, taking altitude and applied electric field as input, is developed for effective representation of current for a ...

Studying Recorded lightning over Iraq for Period 1998-2011

open access: yesAl-Mustansiriyah Journal of Science, 2018
This research studies distribution of thunderstorm in Iraq for the period (1998-2011), the result showed that  the largest regions which had been hit by lightning stroke were between latitude (35-36◦)E and longitude (45-46◦)N, and April was the most ...

Simulated Impacts of Thundercloud Charge Distributions on Sprite Halos Using a 3D Quasi-Electrostatic Field Model

open access: yesAtmosphere
Sprite halos are transient luminous phenomena in the lower ionosphere triggered by tropospheric lightning. The effect of removed charge distributions on sprite halos has not been sufficiently discussed.

Infinite cloud model of electrification by the precipitation mechanism in a possible rainout situation. Interim report, 14 January 1976--30 July 1977

open access: yes, 1977
This report examines the extent to which the ionization associated with a radioactive aerosol will limit electric field growth in a thundercloud. Favored mechanisms for thundercloud electrification, called precipitation mechanisms, involve charge ...

Self-organized transport model of spark discharge development and its application to the process of lightning initiation in a thundercloud

open access: yes, 2019
This video visualizes results obtained by a small-scale transport model of electrical discharge formation in a thundercloud. The model discharge tree is a dynamic graph, nodes and edges of which are capacitive and conductive elements, respectively ...
