    This article demonstrates that didactic videos have the potential to enhance quality perception, performance and interest in engineering education. Emergency Remote Learning (ERL) imposed challenging conditions on education, ...

  • Upward propagation of gigantic jets revealed by 3D radio and optical mapping 

    Boggs, Levi D.; Mach, Doug; Bruning, Eric; Liu, Ningyu; Van der Velde, Oscar Arnoud; Montanya Puig, Joan; Cummer, Steven A.; Palivec, Kevin; Chmielewski, Vanna; MacGorman, Donald R.; Peterson, Michael J. (2022-08-05)
    Article
    Accés obert
    Occasionally, lightning will exit the top of a thunderstorm and connect to the lower edge of space, forming a gigantic jet. Here, we report on observations of a negative gigantic jet that transferred an extraordinary amount ...
