AE002
Celebrating 100 Years of Discoveries in Atmospheric and Space Electricity
Session ID#: 79586
Session Description:
Although research activity in Atmospheric and Space Electricity (ASE) began centuries earlier, this AGU Centennial year is an opportunity to reflect on some of the most exciting discoveries in our discipline in the past 100 years. This session invites papers discussing major accomplishments in ASE, including (but not limited to) the far-reaching hypotheses of CTR Wilson, the many interpretations of the Carnegie Curve, the improved understandings of the global distribution of lightning on Earth, the initiation of lightning inside clouds, and the electrification mechanisms of hydrometeors, in addition to fundamental innovations such as the discoveries of the ionosphere, of Schumann Resonances, transient luminous events, and lightning activity on other planets (just to list a few). Of particular interest for this session are papers which relate major Centennial discoveries to present work and to future directions across and beyond ASE research.
