Making a Superbolt: Reconciling Observations of the Optically Brightest Lightning on Earth From Different Satellites

Abstract We previously documented geographic distributions of the optically brightest lightning on Earth—known as “superbolts”—using two space‐based instruments: the photodiode detector (PDD) on the Fast On‐orbit Recording of Transient Events (FORTE) satellite and the Geostationary Lightning Mapper...
