Algorithm for Improved QPE over Complex Terrain Using Cloud-to-Ground Lightning Occurrences

Lightning and deep convective precipitation have long been studied as closely linked variables, the former being viewed as a proxy, or estimator, of the latter. However, to date, no single methodology or algorithm exists for estimating lightning-derived precipitation in a gridded form. This paper, t...
