Lightning triggering related with seismic waves

This paper reports the trigger effects concerning rare high intensity sub-millisecond electromagnetic pulses associated with passage of seismic waves from earthquakes. The Malaysian LDN data have been studied together with earthquake USGS NEIC catalog, and space-time coupling of positive cloud-to-ground discharges (+CG) with exact seismic waves from the earthquakes has been described. Electromagnetic pulses related to seismic waves can provoke positive lightning discharges (+CG) and transient luminous events (TLEs), such as Red Sprites, Sprite halos, Blue Jets and Elves. © 2007 IEEE.
