| Abstract | For the large positive charge region under the thundercloud base, we conducted the experiments during the summer of 2012 and 2013 in Pingliang, Gansu province, China, to invest the characteristics of lightning processes. The characteristics of CG flash have been analyzed based on both the images from high-speed video camera and electric field changes from fast and slow antennas. The luminescence of the leader which contacted with the ground was weaker than that of flash in other region of China. In the CG lightning flashes, four out of them had more than one contact on the ground and the most was three. The luminescence time of leader lasted time were about 3-25 ms. And the most return stroke order was nine. |
