Spatio‐Seasonal Risk Assessment of Upward Lightning at Tall Objects Using Meteorological Reanalysis Data

Spatio‐Seasonal Risk Assessment of Upward Lightning at Tall Objects Using Meteorological Reanalysis Data

Abstract This study investigates lightning at tall objects and evaluates the risk of upward lightning (UL) over the eastern Alps and its surrounding areas. While uncommon, UL poses a threat, especially to wind turbines, as the long‐duration current of UL can cause significant damage. Current risk as...
