Electric field pulses in close lightning cloud flashes
Abstract
Data obtained in 1984 for lightning cloud flashes at Florida were used to investigate electric field pulses, their times of occurrence in the flash, and their relationship to slower electric field variations. It is found that large pulses with a width of a few microseconds tended to occur more frequently early in the flash. The results suggest that the process that produces K change pulses is different from that which produces the large pulses.
