This is essential information for a newcomer to the subject as well as for experienced scientists working in this field. Indeed, it is only through exercising various models and mathematical simulations that one can understand the basics mechanisms associated with the generation and interactions of the electric and magnetic fields of thunderclouds and lightning. 606 $aElectromagnetism 606 $aLightning 615 0$aElectromagnetism. 615 0$aLightning. 676 $a551.5632 701 $aCooray$b Vernon$01063257 712 02$aInstitution of Engineering and Technology. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911006514403321 996 $aLightning electromagnetics$94388333 997 $aUNINA
