The temporal and spectral signatures of a lightning-induced electron precipitation (LEP) burst observed by the S81-1 stimulated emission of energetic particles are analyzed and compared with the predictions of a particle model of the gyroresonant whistler-particle interaction in the magnetosphere. It is found that, for a whistler wave packet with a frequency range of 500 to 6,000 Hz, the dynamic energy spectra depend on the electron angular distribution in the vicinity of the loss cone. The dynamic energy spectra of the LEP pulse and the integral counting rate are shown to be consistent with the model predictions.
