Abstract

The authors investigate the problem of determining the low-frequency electromagnetic radiation spectra of zones of lightning activity by analyzing data obtained from a space-based high-speed camera. A new way of obtaining electromagnetic spectra of lightning is proposed, based on the hypothesis that there is a correlation between the temporal dependences of the intensity of radiation of a single lightning discharge when measured in the optical and electromagnetic ranges. The need to study the effect local lightning has on processes associated with the Schumann resonance is substantiated.
