Abstract:
According to the data of the international whistler detection network AWDANET, the global network for detecting pulsed lightning discharges WWLLN and the VLF direction finder of the IKIR FEB RAS, a statistical analysis was carried out to identify whistler sources. Pairs of discharges with a repetition time interval of less than 100 ms and a distance between them of less than 40 km were excluded from the WWLLN database. The resulting time series showed a high degree of correlation with the time series of registered whistlers in the AWDANET data.
