The challenge of predicting flash floods from thunderstorm rainfall. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A major characteristic of the hydrometeorology of semi-arid regions is the occurrence of intense thunderstorms that develop very rapidly and cause severe flooding.

Thunderstorm incidence in southeastern Brazil estimated from different data sources [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2013
This paper describes a comparative analysis of the thunderstorm incidence in southeastern Brazil obtained from thunderstorm days observed at two different epochs (from 1910 to 1951 and from 1971 to 1984) and from lightning data provided by the ...

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 ...

Correlative Super‐Resolution Imaging of Cellular Nanopores Facilitated by Transparent Polymer Waveguide Chips

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 8, March 13, 2025.
Correlative super‐resolution optical imaging of the ultrastructure of rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) across a large field of view (FOV) with 3D structured illumination microscopy (3D‐SIM) and single‐molecule localization microscopy (SMLM), facilitated by a transparent polymer photonic waveguide chip, is presented.

Thunderstorm‐related asthma can occur in New Zealand

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, 2020
Thunderstorm asthma is induced by specific weather conditions causing breakdown and widespread distribution of allergens. Thunderstorm asthma had previously been considered unlikely to occur in New Zealand (NZ), given its local weather patterns.

Off‐Grid Solar Systems: An Experimental Work and Systematic Techno‐Economic Analysis

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
In the study mentioned above, experimental monitoring and economic evaluation of two off‐grid PV systems were conducted using a low‐cost data logger. The results suggest that basic DC systems are economically feasible compared to grid power, but that AC systems require further cost‐cutting to achieve financial viability.

On the spatial and temporal distribution of global thunderstorm cells

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2014
Estimates of global thunderstorm activity have been made predominately by direct measurements of lightning discharges around the globe, either by optical measurements from satellites, or using ground-based radio antennas.
