Sferics fix

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-008811

A geographical location determined by triangulating the radio signals emitted by lightning discharges. Multiple sferics receivers detect the electromagnetic pulses, and their arrival times or directions are used to pinpoint the origin of the lightning strike. This method provides real-time mapping of thunderstorm activity over large areas.
