High-altitude electrical discharges associated with thunderstorms and lightning [PDF]
Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2015 The purpose of this paper is to introduce electrical discharge phenomena known as transient luminous events above thunderstorms to the lightning protection community. Transient luminous events include the upward electrical discharges from thunderstorms known as starters, jets, and gigantic jets, and electrical discharges initiated in the lower ...
