Evidence of thermal and aerosol effects on the cloud-to-ground lightning density and polarity over large urban areas of Southeastern Brazil

The Brazilian lightning detection network detected about 310,000 cloud‐to‐ground flashes over three large metropolitan areas in Southeastern Brazil during three summer seasons (from 2000 to 2002). It was observed an enhancement of 60–100% in the flash density over the urban areas compared to their s...
