A model for the current pulses of cloud-to-ground lightning discharges is proposed. Characteristics of lightning pukes such as finite rise time, decay time and time of occurrence are incorporated in the model. The mean current and power spectral density are calculated using a numerical technique.
A 12-year climatology of lightning cloud-to-ground flash activity for Georgia revealed the existence of three primary regions of high lightning activity: the area surrounding the Atlanta Metropolitan Statistical Area, east-central Georgia along the fall line, and along the Atlantic coast. Over 8.2 m
