The Use of the Weibull Distribution for Thunderstorm Parameters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Most observations in thunderstorm statistics are positive, having values between 0 and ∞. Since they are of a ?duration-length? type. the normal distribution is not, in most cases, a satisfactory approximation. A widely ...
Recalculation of Lightning Localization System Acceptance Using a Refined Damping Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Acceptance of lightning detectors and lightning localization systems has been investigated. Previous calculations based on an exponential damping of the lightning radiation pulse have been repeated using a more sophisticated ...
A New Method for the Measurement of the Site Errors of a Lightning Direction-Finder: Description and First Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: One of the major limitations in the use of magnetic direction-finders for locating lightning is the presence of systematic angle errors that are due to the local antenna site. An attempt was made to measure this systematic ...
Acceptance of Lightning Detectors and Localization Systems under Different Damping Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The acceptance of individual lightning detectors, idealized detection networks using both loop antenna and time of arrival techniques, and the Swedish lightning localization network have been investigated. The calculations ...
