analyzing clearly develop dynamics effects further happens images inside necessary possible processes step structure understanding
By analyzing the high-speed images in sequence, we've been able to clearly define, for the first time, the processes by which sprites develop and what happens inside of them. This understanding of sprite structure is a necessary step to further elucidate sprite dynamics and their possible effects on the upper atmosphere.
chemical chemicals energy light locations might normally produce species
Electrons with enough energy to produce light can also produce interesting chemical species not normally generated. Such chemicals might be long-lived and could be transported to other locations through the atmosphere.
lightning phenomena produce required speed strength
We should be able to make new connections between the lightning strength and speed required to produce these phenomena in the upper atmosphere.
