Electrification and lightning in simulated supercell and non-supercell thunderstorms.
(2000)Three parameterizations of a noninductive graupel-ice mechanism and various strengths of inductive graupel-droplet charging were tested. For a given storm type, the charge distribution and lightning produced by the different ... -
High resolution simulations of the microphysics and electrification in hurricane-like vortices over warm ocean and at landfall.
(2007)Cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning bursts in the eyewall of mature tropical cyclones (TCs) are believed to be good indicators of imminent intensification of these systems. While numerous well-documented observational cases ... -
Optical observations of lightning by the FORTE satellite: Terrestrial ground truth and implications for the interpretation of Jovian lightning data.
(2001)Lightning and storm electrification have been studied from many different viewpoints and with many different instruments. The myriad of viewpoints and instruments often see the results or effects of different processes ... -
Radio-frequency emissions from runaway electron avalanche models compared with intense, transient radio-frequency signals associated with thunderstorms.
(2002)The results of a one-dimensional model of a runaway electron avalanche, initiated by a high-energy cosmic ray secondary electron, in a thunderstorm electric field are presented. The time-evolution of the electron densities, ...
