Initial electric field changes of lightning flashes in tropical thunderstorms and their relationship to the lightning initiation mechanism

In this paper, the key finding is that all the examined first classic Initial Breakdown (IB) pulses in tropical flashes within the reversal distance were found to be initiated by a clearly detectable Initial E-field Change or IEC (45 –CG, 32 normal IC, and 3 IC initiated by +NBE). The durations of I...
