Abstract

Topical problems of monitoring and analysis of lightning activity are considered. The paper also presents monthly distributions of lightning discharges over the globe. The instrumentation applied in VLF signal registration is described. An algorithm of search for possible areas of lightning activity affecting whistler occurrence in a defined region is suggested. The algorithm compares each detected whistler with the data of the World Wide Lightning Location Network. It also may be used to analyze different time intervals of the world lightning activity from the moment of whistler formation.
