The information thus obtained indicates that the return-stroke peak current decreases with height while the rise time of the current increases.

Interaction of Lightning Flashes with Humans,g is likely to be higher in those countries as a result of the higher number of lightning strikes and the amount of time spent outside and in unprotected buildings. The global mortality rate from lightning could be around 1,000 per year. Table 16.1 tabulates the lightning-caused fatalities in several countries.

Let us now consider the basic processes that make possible the conversion of air from an insulator into a conductor and the different types of discharge that take place in air under various conditions.

The two most common techniques used to measure electric fields are the vertical antenna and the field mill [1]. In the case of magnetic fields a loop antenna is used in the measurements.
