Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #49010 July Prediction Lightning Strike Incident
Instructions
A  drop  in  the  incidence  of  lightning  strikes  could    on  the  frequency  of  wildfires,  especially  in  tropical  regions.  It  could  also  lower  the  incidence  of  lightning  strikes  to  infrastructure  and  affect  how  greenhouse  gases  in  the  atmosphere  contribute  to  climate  change.  Scientists  from  the  Universities  of  Edinburgh  and  Leeds  and  Lancaster  University  used  a  newly  devised  method  to  calculate  the  likely  incidence  of  lightning  flashes  from  storm  clouds.    traditional  calculations  of  lightning  flashes  at  the  global  scale,  which  are  based  on  the  height  of  clouds,  their  approach  takes  into  account  the  movement  of  tiny  ice  particles  that  form  and  move  within  clouds.  Electrical  charges    in  these  ice  particles,  and  in  cold  water  droplets  and  soft  hail  formed  inside  clouds.  These  are    during  storms,  giving  rise  to  lightning  flashes  and  thunder.
