- Analyses of electric and magnetic fields measured at distances from tens to hundreds of meters from the ground strike point of triggered lightning at Camp Blanding, Florida, and at 10 and 20 m at Fort McClellan, Alabama, in conjunction with currents measured at the lightning channel base and with optical observations, allow us to make new inferences on several aspects of the lightning discharge and additionally to verify the recently published âtwo-waveâ mechanism of the lightning M component. At very close ranges (a few tens of meters or less) the time rate of change of the final portion of the dart leader electric field can be comparable to that of the return stroke. The variation of the close dart leader electric field change with distance is somewhat slower than the inverse proportionality predicted by the uniformly charged leader model, perhaps because of a decrease of leader charge density with decreasing height associated with an incomplete development of the corona sheath at the bottom of the channel. There is a positive linear correlation between the leader electric field change at close range and the succeeding return stroke current peak at the channel base. The formation of each step of a dart-stepped leader is associated with a charge of a few millicoulombs and a current of a few kiloamperes. In an altitude-triggered lightning the downward negative leader of the bidirectional leader system and the resulting return stroke serve to provide a relatively low-impedance connection between the upward moving positive leader tip and the ground, the processes that follow likely being similar to those in classical triggered lightning. Lightning appears to be able to reduce, via breakdown processes in the soil and on the ground surface, the grounding impedance which it initially encounters at the strike point, so at the time of channel-base current peak the reduced grounding impedance is always much lower than the equivalent impedance of the channel. At close ranges the measured M-component magnetic fields have waveshapes that are similar to those of the channel-base currents, whereas the measured M-component electric fields have waveforms that appear to be the time derivatives of the channel-base current waveforms, in further confirmation of the âtwo-waveâ M-component mechanism.
