Atmospheric electricity has been intensively studied during the last 30 years after the
discovery in 1989 of different forms of upper atmospheric electrical discharges (so–called …

This review covers selected results of recent observations of lightning discharges performed
across the entire electromagnetic spectrum (radiofrequency, optical, and energetic radiation) …

Blue jets are lightning-like, atmospheric electric discharges of several hundred millisecond
duration that fan into cones as they propagate from the top of thunderclouds into the …

Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) are signatures in radio signals from thunderstorms observed
by ground-based receivers. NBEs may occur at the onset of lightning, but the discharge …

Abstract The Atmosphere‐Space Interactions Monitor measures Terrestrial Gamma‐Ray
Flashes (TGFs) simultaneously with optical emissions from associated lightning activity. We …

Abstract Narrow Bipolar Events (NBEs) are powerful radio emissions from thunderstorms,
which have been recently associated with blue optical flashes on cloud tops and attributed …

Advances in global lightning detection have provided novel ways to characterize explosive
volcanism. However, researchers are still at the early stages of understanding how volcanic …

Abstract Blue LUminous Events (BLUEs) are transient corona discharges occurring in
thunderclouds and characterized by strong 337.0 nm light flashes with absent (or weak) …

We investigate the initiation of four lightning flashes detected from ground by means of the
Colombia Lightning Map** Array (Colombia-LMA) and simultaneously observed from …

Blue electric streamer discharges in the upper reaches of thunderclouds are observed as
flashes of 337.0 nm (blue) with faint or no emissions of 777.4 nm (red). Analyzing 3 years of …
