Observing relationships between lightning and cloud profiles by means of a satellite-borne cloud radar
2017
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques
<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Cloud electrification and related lightning activity in thunderstorms have their origin in the charge separation and resulting distribution of charged iced particles within the cloud. So far, the ice distribution within convective clouds has been investigated mainly by means of ground-based meteorological radars. In this paper we show how the products from Cloud Profiling Radar (CPR) on board CloudSat, a polar satellite of NASA's Earth System Science Pathfinder
