Abstract
A numerical study of microwave thermal emission from a finiteβsize buried object is described. Results show that emission from a finiteβsize object can exhibit properties similar to emission from a layered (i.e., horizontally infinite) model of the object, including an oscillatory behavior versus frequency.

## Abstract The maximum measured electric fields in thunderclouds are an order of magnitude less than the fields required for electric breakdown of the air. Several explanations for lightning initiation in these lowβintensity fields exist. One explanation is that electric breakdown first occurs at
