Comparison of Six Lightning Parameterizations in CAM5 and the Impact on Global Atmospheric Chemistry

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2019
We present simulations performed with six lightning parameterizations implemented in the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM5). The amount of lightning‐produced nitrogen oxides (LNOx) by the various schemes considered is estimated. We provide some insight on

A new approach to the determination of the striking distance from the lightning channel photos [PDF]

open access: yes
The possible influence the stepped leader movement has on the value of the striking distance is studied. The numerical values of the striking distances are most frequently verified from the lightning channel photos.

Observations of thunder with the Arecibo VHF radar [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
An experiment was carried out at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico in August 1985 to study Doppler velocities in a thunderstorm environment with a beam pointed 2.5 degrees off-vertical.

Analysis of Chorus Wave Power on Burst‐Mode Timescales During the Van Allen Probes Era

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Interactions between whistler‐mode chorus waves and electrons are a key driver of dynamics in Earth's radiation belts. These global dynamics are often described using Fokker‐Planck diffusion models. Whilst, in many cases, such models effectively describe the large scale changes within the region, they often rely upon spatially and temporally ...

Landscape, stand and tree characteristics influence the distribution of lightning damage in Central African forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1385-1398, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The impact of lightning in tropical forests remains uncertain. Specifically, the factors that influence the spatial distribution of lightning damage within forests remain unknown.

Air Quality Penalty in Southeast Asia Driven by AMOC Slowdown

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) regulates Earth's climate by redistributing heat and freshwater across the Atlantic Ocean. While accelerating Arctic melt is expected to weaken the AMOC, its implications for atmospheric composition remain poorly understood.

Two basic leader connection scenarios observed in negative lightning attachment process

open access: yesHigh Voltage, 2016
High-speed video images of 24 downward negative lightning flashes terminating on tall structures in Guangzhou are selected to analyse the connecting behaviour of the downward and upward leaders during the attachment process preceding the first return ...
