Description

The influence of a charged cloud the electric field on chemical processes in the air at heights of 95-100 km has been studied. Numerical simulation of the plasma at these altitudes is performed, the concentrations of main charged particles are determined under the conditions of the electric field created by the unipolar charge of the cloud. It is shown that the electric fields of the clouds after the discharges of linear lightning affect the electron concentration at these altitudes. (paper)
