Are large high-altitude electric fields caused by global thunderstorms? [PDF]
Earth, Planets and Space, 2014 Using the model of a spherical symmetric atmosphere the large-scale electric fields generated by the global thunderstorms are investigated. Theoretical formulations have been developed to calculate high-altitude electric fields due to global thunderstorms, taking into account the presence of the ionosphere.
