Lightning represents a natural phenomenon of substantial interest. Due to its complex nature, research continues in many countries and reveals amazing results. Lightning is actively observed because of its relevance to Earth climate and air composition in addition to the classical aspects of related human fatalities and damage to forests, buildings, power lines, aircraft, structures and electronic devices.
In this volume, the most important contemporary questions on lightning are addressed and analyzed under many experimental and theoretical aspects. Lightning detection techniques using ground-based and space-borne methods are described, along with network engineering and statistical analysis.
Contributions detail research on atmospheric electricity, cloud physics, lightning physics, modeling of electrical storms and middle atmospheric events. Special phenomena such as triggered lightning and sprite observations are examined. Lightning-induced nitrogen oxides and their effects on atmospheric chemistry and climate are discussed.
Each topic is presented by international experts in the field. Topics include:
* air chemistry
* convective storms
* infrasound from lightning
* lightning and climate change
* lightning and precipitation
* lightning and radiation
* lightning and supercells
* lightning and thunderstorms
* lightning detection
* lightning from space
* lighting protection
* lightning return strokes
* observations and interpretations
* spatial distribution and frequency
* triggered lightning
* weather extremes

Hans D. Betz received his PhD in Physics at the University of Heidelberg, Germany. He performed research and teaching at the Physics Department of MIT at Boston, USA, thereafter at the Physics Department of the Ludwig Maximilians University, Munich. Major fields of research covered laser, atomic and nuclear physics, and atmospheric electricity.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Lightning represents a natural phenomenon of historic interest; due to its complex aspects research continues in many countries and reveals amazing results. Lightning has been observed traditionally because of the hazards causing both a number of human victims every year, and increasing damage to forests, buildings, power lines, structures and electronic devices. A more recent focus of attention relates to the potential impact of lightning on atmospheric chemistry and climate. In the present volume the most important current questions on Lightning are described and analyzed under many experimental and theoretical aspects, and each topic is presented by experts in the field. Lightning detection techniques using ground-based and space-borne methods are described, along with network engineering and many statistical results. Understanding of the various processes during flash occurrence is still a matter of research, such as initiating effects, development and propagation of leaders, and electrical neutralization by means of relatively large short-term and continuing currents in discharge channels.In this sense, contributions contain research in atmospheric electricity regarding cloud physics and lightning, lightning physics, modeling of the electricity of storms, and lightning in relation with middle atmospheric events.Special phenomena such as triggered lightning, and sprite observations are covered. Also discussed are lightning-induced nitrogen oxides and their effects on atmospheric chemistry and climate. Finally, severe weather conditions are often related to lightning so that observations and nowcasting are scrutinized. In the present volume the most important current questions on lightning are described and analyzed under many experimental and theoretical aspects. The level of questions discussed is high, but the contents should be understandable for non-experts. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
