Abstract

An interesting scientific problem lies in the investigation of intense thunderstorms and their characteristics at a regional level. The Nizhny Novgorod Lightning Detection Network (NNLDN) has been recently implemented, enabling the realtime monitoring of thunderstorm activity in the region. This network serves as a valuable tool for issuing timely thunderstorm warnings and triggering measurement equipment designed to capture the high-frequency radio emissions emitted by nearby thunderstorms. This paper outlines the structure of the NNLDN, elucidates its operational principles, and presents the findings of recent observations conducted by the NNLDN.
