Current waveforms analyses of lightning flashes triggered by the rocket and wire technique
Abstract
Presented in this paper are the main results of the 1987 Rocket Triggered Lightning Program (RTLP) in Florida: I greater than 60 kA, DI/DT greater than 400 kA/micro-S. Optical and electrical observations from flashes triggered by grounded wire or insulating cable (200 m) rocket technique are presented. Correlation between I and DI/DT measurements are presented and discussed. These measurements were carried out with the same grounded wire rocket technique in Florida in 1985, 1987, and in France in 1986.
