• Regional Differences in Tropical Lightning Distributions (2000, background): “Preliminary intercomparisons with other sensors find the LIS spatial accuracy good to about 6 km, and stable over the course of individual overpasses (e.g., Thomas et al. 2000).”
• The GOES-R GeoStationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) (2012, methodology): “The advantage of VHF based proxies is that the flash detail provided by the VHF mapping is actually greater than what is seen by the GLM instrument (Thomas et al., 2000).”
• Long‐range lightning geolocation using a VLF radio atmospheric waveform bank (2010, methodology): “(LMA) [Thomas et al., 2000] and provides high‐resolution data, resolving simultaneous leader branches from the main charge region to the upper charge region (cloud flashes) or”
• Performance Assessment of the Optical Transient Detector and Lightning Imaging Sensor. Part I: Predicted Diurnal Variability (2002, methodology): “…National Lightning Detection Network was reported by Boccippio et al. (2000b), while ground validation of the LIS using small-sample case studies of very high frequency (VHF) time-of-arrival network data has been reported by Ushio et al. (1999), Thomas et al. (2000), and Koshak et al. (2000b).”
• Global frequency and distribution of lightning as observed from space by the Optical Transient Detector (2003, unknown): “The combination of accuracy, stability, sensitivity and sampling combine to yield a set of lightning observations which is superior in many ways to earlier observations from space.”
• Location accuracy of VLF World-Wide Lightning Location (WWLL) network: Post-algorithm upgrade (2005, background): “Differences of∼1 s were possible between the NLDN and LIS detections (Thomas et al., 2000).”
• The North Alabama Lightning Mapping Array: Recent Severe Storm Observations and Future Prospects (2005, background): “D VHF regional Lightning Mapping Array (LMA; Rison et al., 1999; Krehbiel et al., 2000; Thomas et al., 2000; Goodman et al., 2002) consists of 10 VHF receivers deployed across northern Alabama and a base station located at the National Space Science and Technology Center (NSSTC), which is on the…”
