Cloud to surface lightning activity in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea in the context of marine infrastructure safety by J. Silverman, Y. Yair, C. Price, M. Asfur

“…The spatial distribution of the LSBs in the IMEEZ is relatively homogeneous. Considering that seawater salinization and acidification may increase lightning intensity over the IMEEZ by 25% until 2050, it is clear that the risk to marine infrastructure in the region will increase and appropriate steps should be taken to upgrade their lightning protection systems to withstand a PC of 400 kA, which is one STD above the calculated mean.…”
