Climatology of Lightning in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (CHMI) has utilized lightning data from the Central European Lightning Detection Network (CELDN) since 1999. The CELDN primarily focuses on the detection of cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning but intra-cloud (IC) lightning detection is also available. The quality of lightning data can be evaluated using climatological characteristics. Climatological characteristics are also useful for defining decision thresholds that are valuable for human forecasters as well as forautomatic nowcasting applications. In addition, lightning characteristics related to the identified convective cells, such as distribution of the lightning stroke rates or relation to the radar derived by Vertically Integrated Liquid, are presented.
