Cell-tracking with lightning data from LINET
A new lightning detection network (LINET) has been developed at the University of Munich, which locates and reports both cloud discharges and cloud-to-ground strokes with high accuracy. The network started operation in May 2006; since then lightning data for Europe are being delivered to many scientific groups, and to the German Weather Service (DWD) on an operational basis (powered by nowcast ...
متن کاملNew Lightning Detection Networks in Poland – LINET and LLDN
Lightning detection in Poland is performed by means of a PERUN (Safir 3000) system operated by the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management. Poland is also partly covered by a VLF/LF lightning detection system (CLDN, Central Lightning Detection Network). Both sources of lightning data have their limitations resulting from detection technique, limited number of sensors and geographical conf...
متن کاملA comparison of lightning data provided by ZEUS and LINET networks over Western Europe
In the framework of this paper, one-year of lightning data from the experimental network ZEUS operated by the National Observatory of Athens is compared to collocated data provided by the LINET detection network. The area of comparison is limited to a part of Central-Western Europe, where LINET data exhibits the highest data quality, permitting thus to be used as the validation dataset. The loc...
متن کاملThe Advantages of Total Lightning over Cg Lightning for Thunderstorm Cell Identification and Tracking and Its Complements to Radar Reflectivity
INTRODUCTION Three-dimensional radar reflectivity data and the algorithms used to help meteorologists interpret these data are extremely important in nowcasting. However, a number of inherent problems arise when tracking thunderstorm cells with 3-dimensional reflectivity. These problems include (1) identifying cells in a complex multi-cellular thunderstorm environment, (2) detecting thunderstor...
متن کاملLightning Characteristics Based on Data from the Austrian Lightning Locating System
In this paper, we compare various lightning characteristics measured by the Austrian lightning locating system [Austrian Lightning Detection and Information System (ALDIS)] with those found in the literature. The latter are typically based on measurements of lightning electric fields. We show that lightning peak electric fields due to subsequent strokes measured by the ALDIS are similar to thos...
