On the proportion of upward flashes to lightning research towers

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Aleksandr Smorgonskii, Wolfgang Schulz

We compare in this paper direct measurements obtained on the towers on San Salvatore Mountain (Switzerland) and on the Gaisberg Mountain (Austria). They are situated in similar topographical environments but in different lightning activity zones. Direct me ...
