World Wide Lightning Location Network


me to WWLLN - the World Wide Lightning Location Network. A global network monitoring lightning activity over the entire Earth.

Most ground-based observations in the 3 - 30 kHz VLF band are dominated by impulsive signals from lightning discharges called “sferics”. Each lightning stroke location requires the time of group arrival (TOGA) from a least 5 WWLLN sensors. Acknowledgements WWLLN data is produced with the help and cooperation of numerous universities, institutes and researchers located all around the world.
