The data used were The Total electron Content (TEC) which was computed from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements provided by Argentine Continuous Satellite Monitoring Network (RAMSAC by its Spanish acronym) stations and the atmospheric electrical activity data which were provided by the Earth Network Total Lightning Network (ENTLN). We found that thunderstorms generated some oscillations in the vertical total electron content (VTEC). Some variations showed oscillations with periodicities of 25–30 minutes and amplitudes greater than 0.3 total electron content units (TECU). While in other cases oscillatory variations were observed with periods of about 4 minutes and amplitudes around 0.1 TECU. The former could be related to gravity waves, while the latter could be considered acoustic waves.","PeriodicalId":70714,"journal":{"name":"中国防雷","volume":"64 1","pages":"01-07"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86204024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optical observations show some unusual behavior of dart leader propagation. There appear two branches on the top portion of discharge channel in one flash. Dart leader could propagate downward along either branch, and after RS initiation, there occurs a tiny leader branch near the branching point, following the other branch but normally does not propagate long. Only in one subsequent stoke event, it keeps developing upward so that the entire branched channel can be apparently observed. In the other flash, one dart leader, whose leader tip has the similar characteristics as the normal dart leader, is initiated from the striking point and then develops upward, along the preconditioned channel. The two-dimensional (2-D) average speed of dart leader propagation ranges from 2.83×106 m/s to 1.92×107 m/s, mostly in the order of 106m/s.","PeriodicalId":70714,"journal":{"name":"中国防雷","volume":"16 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84356761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It frequently occurs, at a rate of 44 strikes every second, and it can cause severe damages to properties and endanger human lives either by death or permanent injuries. In Malaysia, lightning activities are one of the highest globally, and they have caused severe economic losses and human casualties. To avoid being struck by lightning, seeking shelter inside buildings is the standard action. However, there are doubts about how prepared buildings are to minimise the risk of human injuries and fatalities. In this project, lightning risk assessment and surveying of the existing Lightning Protection Level (LPL) of 22 buildings of different purposes in Cyberjaya, Malaysia were carried out. With the aid of the Malaysian lightning protection standards, MS IEC 62305, the risk of loss of human life (R1) due to direct strikes to buildings was calculated. In order to perform risk assessment, data were collected from different sources and using different methods including CAD drawings, physical inspections, direct measurements, interviews and inquiries from the management, and relevant online sources and publications. It was found that only less than half of the sampled buildings have adequate protection to minimise the risk of loss of human life. Finally, methods of risk mitigation for the unsafe structures were recommended to reduce the risk of loss of human lives to an acceptable level specified by the standards based on the significant factors contributing to the said risk.","PeriodicalId":70714,"journal":{"name":"中国防雷","volume":"116 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85257227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
