Will moist convection be stronger in a warmer climate? (2007, background): “Lightning is a leading cause of weather-related fatalities and property damage [Curran et al., 2000], is a source of NOx and O3 [Allen and Pickering, 2002], and ignites forest fires [Price and Rind, 1994a].”
Optimized regional and interannual variability of lightning in a global chemical transport model constrained by LIS/OTD satellite data (2012, unknown): “…for global and regional models have been developed, all based on proxies of deep convection [ Price and Rind , 1992, 1993, 1994; Price et al. , 1997; Allen et al. , 2000; Grewe et al. , 2001; Meijer et al. , 2001; Allen and Pickering , 2002; Petersen et al. , 2005; Jacobson and Streets , 2009].”
Production of lightning NOx and its vertical distribution calculated from three‐dimensional cloud‐scale chemical transport model simulations (2010, background): “Allen and Pickering [2002] have evaluated their use in global 3-D CTMs.”
Space‐based constraints on the production of nitric oxide by lightning (2007, methodology): “The simulation overestimates the lightning signal over South America and underestimates the lightning signal over Africa, common problems for models using the Price and Rind [1992] parameterization [Allen and Pickering, 2002].”
