Use of VLF transmissions in the location and mapping of lightning-induced ionisation enhancements (LIEs)
Read more of: Use of VLF transmissions in the location and mapping of lightning-induced ionisation enhancements (LIEs)Lightning-induced ionisation enhancements (LIEs) are usually produced by short (~ 1 s) bursts of energetic electrons precipitated from the radiation belts in the process of amplifying whistlers. During their short […]
