Zusammenfassung |
We use the C/NOFS satellite's Vector Electric Field Instrument (VEFI) to
study the relationship of impulsive electron whistlers in the low-latitude
ionosphere to lightning strokes located by the World-Wide Lightning Location
Network (WWLLN). In order to systematize this work, we develop an automated
algorithm for recognizing and selecting the signatures of electron whistlers
amongst many Very Low Frequency (VLF) recordings provided by VEFI. We
demonstrate the application of this whistler-detection algorithm to data
mining of a ~ two-year archive of VEFI recordings. It is shown that
the relatively simple oblique electron whistler adequately accounts of the
great majority of low-latitude oscillatory VLF waves seen in this study. |
