Total Lightning Flash Activity Response to Aerosol over China Area

Total Lightning Flash Activity Response to Aerosol over China Area

Twelve years of measurements of aerosol optical depth (AOD), cloud fraction, cloud top height, ice cloud optical thickness and lightning flash density from 2001 to 2012 have been analyzed to investigate the effect of aerosols on electrical activity over an area of China. The results show that increa...
