摘要:
摘要： This paper presents a literature survey on the recent developments related to experimental and modeling studies of transient luminous events (TLEs) in the middle atmosphere termed elves, sprites and jets that are produced in association with thunderstorm activity at tropospheric altitudes. The primary emphasis is placed on publications that appeared in refereed literature starting from year 2008 and up to the present date. The survey covers general phenomenology of TLEs and their relationships to characteristics of individual thunderstorms and lightning, physical mechanisms and modeling of TLEs, past, present and future orbital observations of TLEs, and their chemical, energetic and electric effects on local and global scales. 其他題名： Space Sci Rev 出版者： Dordrecht: Springer Science and Business Media LLC 出版日期： 2012-06-01 出處： Space Science Reviews, 2012-06, Vol.168 (1), p.475-516 資源來源： SpringerLink Journals 版權： Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011 版權： 2015 INIST-CNRS 版權： Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2012 識別號： ISSN: 0038-6308 識別號： EISSN: 1572-9672 識別號： DOI: 10.1007/s11214-011-9813-9 識別號： CODEN: SPSRA4
