The importance of including the natural variability of lightning strength in assessment of thunderstorm range uncertainty
A method of estimating lightning distance from a single-site lightning detector is to measure the change in electrostatic field produced by the lightning strike. This can be measured directly using slow-response antennas or indirectly by identifying features of the electromagnetic (radio) signal. Other techniques are used, but tend to suffer from increased range uncertainty due to increased ...
