An unusual lightning flash initiated by an upward-propagating leader

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1973
A lightning flash has been recorded that was initiated by an upward-propagating negatively charged stepped leader that followed a looping path and passed within 600 meters of the initiating tower. It continued for a horizontal distance of approximately 2 km before leaving the field of view of the camera. Current flowed for at least 100 msec with a peak

Three-dimensional optical observations of an upward lightning triggered by positive cloud-to-ground lightning

Atmospheric Research, 2018
Abstract Based on dual-station optical records, electric field and radar data, a detailed analysis of an instance of upward lightning initiated from Canton Tower, in the city of Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China, is presented. The upward lightning was triggered by a positive cloud-to-ground (PCG) flash nearby. The upward lightning channel and part

On the risk of upward lightning initiated from wind turbines

2015 IEEE 15th International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering (EEEIC), 2015
In recent years the number of wind turbines installed in Europe and other continents has increase dramatically. Appropriate lightning protection is required in order to avoid costly replacements of lightning damaged turbine blades, components of the electronic control system, and/or temporary loss of energy production.
