Abstract:Although, lightning location network (LLN) has been widely used all over the world, its performance is still constrained by "site errors" as long as the direction-finder technique is deployed. Based on lightning data from a regional LLN consisted of 25 MDF/TOA combined sensors, a method for "site errors" estimation and correction was proposed and practiced. By comparing the lightning locations reported by at least 4 sensors between MDF and TOA techniques, the spatial and seasonal signatures of "site errors" fo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
