A clear, straightforward, and systematic presentation of complicated material, this resource provides deep insight into the physics of lightning, simple analytical estimates, and a detailed illustration of effects by computer simulation. This comprehensive and up-to-date review of lightning also includes its hazards and protection techniques. The authors examine conventional protective measures and supply technical advice and practical recommendations. They also discuss the initiation of a leader, lightning discharge processes, the effects of high-altitude constructions on lightning trajectory and leader attraction, lightning's electrical and magnetic fields, and underground communications. The book includes measurements useful for understanding lightning and its effects as well.
