Spatio-temporal characteristics of energetic lightning in southeast asia : Preliminary statistical results

The region of Southeast Asia is known as one of the lightning-prone areas in the world. However, spatial and temporal distributions of high-energy lightning discharges, which cause natural disasters e.g. significant damages to local power grid systems and forest fires, are still unknown.
