Journal ArticleDOI
A Combined TOA/MDF Technology Upgrade of the U.S. National Lightning Detection Network
Kenneth L. Cummins,Martin J. Murphy,Edward A. Bardo,William L. Hiscox,Richard B. Pyle,Alburt E. Pifer +5 more
TL;DR: The U.S. National Lightning Detection Network (NLDN) has provided real-time and historical lightning data to the electric utility industry, the National Weather Service, and other government and commercial users.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Overview of Lightning Locating Systems: History, Techniques, and Data Uses, With an In-Depth Look at the U.S. NLDN
TL;DR: The history leading to modern LLSs that sense lightning radiation fields at multiple remote sensors, focusing on the interactions between enabling technology, scientific discovery, technical development, and uses of the data are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lightning location relative to storm structure in a leading‐line, trailing‐stratiform mesoscale convective system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a unique perspective on lightning pathways within a leading-line, trailing-stratiform (LLTS) mesoscale convective system (MCS) on 16 June 2002.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lightning locating systems: Insights on characteristics and validation techniques
TL;DR: The various methods to geolocate lightning, both ground-based and satellite-based, are summarized, and the characteristics of lightning data available from various sources are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Timing of Cloud-to-Ground Lightning Relative to Total Lightning Activity
Donald R. MacGorman,Ivy R. Apostolakopoulos,Nicole R. Lund,Nicholas W. S. Demetriades,Martin J. Murphy,Paul R. Krehbiel +5 more
TL;DR: The first flash produced by a storm usually does not strike ground, but little has been published concerning the time after the first flash before a cloud-to-ground flash occurs, particularly for a variety of climatological regions.
