Scientific paper

A particularly sensitive ground-based technique for detecting lightning-induced electron precipitation (LEP) events is based on the so-called Trimpi effect, in which phase and amplitude changes of subionospheric VLF/LF signals occur as the result of precipitation-induced perturbations of the ionosphere. In this paper, a single-mode propagation theory is applied to phase and amplitude data obtained from two transmitters at Palmer Station, Antarctica to study LEP characteristics. The results are interpreted in terms of inferences on the characteristic shape of precipitation regions, the relative detectability of phase and amplitude changes, and the precipitation flux levels.
