Instructions

Result:
Some interesting electronic activity in the clouds of ash drifting around Europe as a result of that Icelandic volcano. Models predicted that electrical charge should be limited to the top and bottom of any ash plume, which is often the site of spectacular lightning. But info obtained by a weather balloon found significant electrical charge within the plume. And that such charge was being generated within the plume—it wasn't a remnant of the energy of the volcanic eruption or a result of any local weather events, interactions among ash particles seem to be constantly renewing the charge. The finding appears in the journal Environmental Research Letters and is the first prereviewed research related to the April volcano eruption.
