Lightning flashes with continuing currents are characterized by high energy transfer to
ground that produces severe damage to electric power systems. Novel space-based optical …

We investigate the initiation of four lightning flashes detected from ground by means of the
Colombia Lightning Mapping Array (Colombia-LMA) and simultaneously observed from …

By means of the SAETTA 3D lightning mapping array, the total lightning activity has been
detected in a 240 km× 240 km square domain centred on the island of Corsica located in the …

A new automated method to retrieve charge layer polarity from flashes, named Chargepol, is
presented in this paper. Using data from the NASA Lightning Mapping Array (LMA) deployed …

In 2002 it was discovered that a lightning discharge can rise out of the top of tropical
thunderstorms and branch out spectacularly to the base of the ionosphere at 90 km altitude …

Abstract The Atmosphere‐Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) on the International Space
Station (ISS) provides optical radiances and images of lightning flashes in several spectral …

Thunderstorm electrical structures favouring cloud-to-ground lightning were investigated
through a Lightning Mapping Array (LMA), an accurate three-dimensional lightning location …

Optical space‐based lightning sensors including NOAA's Geostationary Lightning Mapper
(GLM) detect lightning though its transient illumination of the surrounding clouds. What …

This work presents the first observation of a multi‐stroke positive cloud‐to‐ground lightning
flash sharing the same channel to ground mapped with a very high frequency broadband …

A validation study of the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) on board the Geostationary
Operational Environmental Satellite 16 (GOES‐16) was done using a ground‐based …
