Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are transient emissions from thunderstorms, generated by electrons accelerated to relativistic energies in electric fields. Elves ultraviolet and optical excited the lower ionosphere electromagnetic waves radiated lightning current pulses. We observed a TGF an associated elve using Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor on International Space Station. The occurred at onset of pulse that elve, early stage flash. Our measurements suggest is fast has high...

Abstract Corona discharges in thundercloud tops are observed by the Atmosphere‐Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) as blue flashes at 337 nm spectral line of N 2 and ground receivers so‐called Narrow Bipolar Events (NBEs) radio signals. It has been suggested that electromagnetic radiation from may be powerful enough to excite elves, rapidly expanding rings luminous emissions bottom ionosphere.

Abstract The Atmosphere‐Space Interactions Monitor measures Terrestrial Gamma‐Ray Flashes (TGFs) simultaneously with optical emissions from associated lightning activity. We analyzed measurements at 180–230, 337, and 777.4 nm related to 69 TGFs observed between June 2018 October 2019. All are 90% of them the onset a large pulse, suggesting that they connected initiation current surges. A model photon delay induced by cloud scattering suggests sources pulses 0.7 ms before 4.4 after TGFs,...
Abstract We report on observations of corona discharges at the uppermost region clouds characterized by emissions in a blue band nitrogen molecules 337 nm, with little activity red lightning leaders 777.4 nm. Past work suggests that they are generated cloud tops reaching tropopause and above. Here we explore their occurrence two convective environments same storm: one is developing above tropopause, collapsing lower tops. focus those form distinct category rise times below 20 μs, implying...
Abstract Blue electric streamer discharges in the upper reaches of thunderclouds are observed as flashes 337.0 nm (blue) with faint or no emissions 777.4 (red). Analyzing 3 years measurements by Atmosphere‐Space Interactions Monitor on International Space Station, we find that their distribution rise time falls into two categories. One fast times 30 μs less relatively unaffected cloud scattering and emanate from within ∼2 km tops, another longer deeper clouds. 50% cells generating shallow...
Abstract We report the first Terrestrial Electron Beam detected by Atmosphere‐Space Interactions Monitor. It happened on 16 September 2018. The Monitor Modular X and Gamma ray Sensor recorded a 2 ms long event, with softer spectrum than typically for Flashes (TGFs). lightning discharge associated to this event was found in World Wide Lightning Location Network data, close northern footpoint of magnetic field line that intercepts International Space Station location. Imaging from GOES‐R...

Abstract The paper aims to demonstrate how enhance the accuracy of offshore wind resource estimation, specifically by incorporating near-surface satellite-derived observations into mesoscale models. We utilized Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model applied observational nudging integrating ASCAT data over areas achieve this. then evaluated nudged WRF simulations comparing them with from ocean oil platforms, tall masts, a lidar mounted on commercial ferry crossing southern Baltic Sea....
Abstract Wind turbine blades may suffer leading edge erosion when rain hits the extremely fast, resulting in blade damage that will negatively impact power production. Since wind turbines are growing size, this translates into higher tip speeds rotate and, therefore, more prone to erosion. mountainous terrain also due high winds and precipitation rates. Therefore, it becomes important estimate lifetimes farm sites with complexity. Blade lifetime prediction models utilize a time series of...
The Mediterranean Sea heavily relies on fossil fuels for its energy supply, but the shift toward green is imminent. Offshore wind farms represent a pivotal step in this transition. However, deploying these effectively requires an accurate assessment of potential offshore areas.Unlike Northern Europe, research sparse due to intricate topography and bathymetry. Mediterranean's coastlines, hemmed by mountain ranges, create unique climates, posing challenges modeling conditions. Additionally,...

Abstract Elves are rapidly expanding rings of optical emissions in the lower ionosphere, excited by transient electromagnetic pulses from lightning clouds below. Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) signatures radio signals intra-cloud discharges. They thought to be fast streamer breakdown that may trigger onset and blue jets. Recent observations space suggest they carry sufficient current excite elves. Here, we report first simultaneous observation NBEs elves confirm this hypothesis. Three negative...
