The overall discharge, termed a flash, is composed of a number of processes such as preliminary breakdown, stepped leaders, connecting leaders, return strokes, dart leaders, and subsequent return strokes. [71] The conductivity of the electrical ground, be it soil, fresh water, or salt water, may affect the lightning discharge rate and thus visible characteristics. [72] Positive and negative lightning Not surprisingly, she was the 7-4 favourite for her hurdling bow, in a novice event at Wincanton last month.This section needs expansionwith: information about lightning strikes on ground vehicles, further information on how aircraft are affected, and further information on how animals and other living organisms are affected. You can help by adding to it. ( March 2021) Holzworth, R. H. (2019). "Global Distribution of Superbolts". Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres. 124 (17–18): 9996–10005.

Cowen, Ron (November 6, 2009). "Signature of antimatter detected in lightning". Science News. Archived from the original on July 28, 2023 . Retrieved July 28, 2023. The charge carrier in lightning is mainly electrons in a plasma. [22] The process of going from charge as ions (positive hydrogen ion and negative hydroxide ion) associated with liquid water or solid water to charge as electrons associated with lightning must involve some form of electro-chemistry, that is, the oxidation and/or the reduction of chemical species. [23] As hydroxide functions as a base and carbon dioxide is an acidic gas, it is possible that charged water clouds in which the negative charge is in the form of the aqueous hydroxide ion, interact with atmospheric carbon dioxide to form aqueous carbonate ions and aqueous hydrogen carbonate ions. Vonnegut, B.; Vaughan, O. H., Jr.; Brook, M.; Krehbiel, P. (1984) "Mesoscale observations of lightning from Space Shuttle" NASA Technical Memorandum 86451. From p. 1: "Here is another description by Astronaut Gibson of lightning over the Andes, " … A few things which impressed me here: One is the fact that they [i.e., lightning strikes] could go off simultaneously or near simultaneously over a large distance — sympathetic lightning bolts, if you will, analogous to sympathetic flares on the sun. … " Since recoil and dart leader processes do not occur on negative leaders, subsequent return strokes very seldom utilize the same channel on positive ground flashes which are explained later in the article. [67] Transient currents during flash Guia Pastorini, a project engineering manager at aerospace company Leonardo which built the equipment used to get the images, said: "The Lightning Imager has four cameras, and each one can capture 1,000 images per second, day and night, detecting even a single lightning bolt faster than the blink of an eye.Dry lightning is lightning that occurs with no precipitation at the surface and is the most common natural cause of wildfires. [93] Pyrocumulus clouds produce lightning for the same reason that it is produced by cumulonimbus clouds [ citation needed]. This term is mainly used in Australia, Canada, and the United States.

The charged species were again considered to be the hydrogen ion and the hydroxide ion. [19] [20]The lightning bolt is a common insignia for military communications units throughout the world. A lightning bolt is also the NATO symbol for a signal asset. Lightning-induced magnetic anomalies can be mapped in the ground, [165] [166] and analysis of magnetized materials can confirm lightning was the source of the magnetization [167] and provide an estimate of the peak current of the lightning discharge.
