Water Microdroplets in Air: A Hitherto Unnoticed Natural Source of Nitrogen Oxides.

Water microdroplets are widespread in the atmosphere. We report a striking observation that micron-sized water droplets obtained from zero-volt spray sources (sonic spray, humidifier, spray bottle, steamer, etc.) spontaneously generate nitrogen oxides.

Extremely high-temperature lightning generates NO by electrolyzing nitrogen and oxygen molecules, regulating ozone concentration. The Pearl River Delta (PRD) is located in the world's high-value area of lightning density, and lightning-generated NO (LNO) cannot be ignored. Using the flash data from Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Lightning Location System and multi-site atmospheric composition data, we estimate the NO variations in lightning activity and its impact on O across the PRD region.

When aircraft are struck by lightning, the aircraft's structural fuselage and components are stressed by electrical and thermo-mechanical constraints, which imposes a need for reliable experimental test benches to design accurate and enhanced lightning protection. In order to reproduce the in-flight conditions of an aircraft in a laboratory, the aim of this work is to design and implement launch equipment able to propel aeronautical test samples at speeds characteristic of an aircraft- from 10 m/s for ultra-light gliders to 100 m/s for airliners-before striking it with an electric arc within the laboratory dimensions of several meters. After a comparison of several propulsion techniques, the selected solution is an augmented electromagnetic railgun launcher.

The Säntis Tower was instrumented in May 2010 to measure currents of lightning discharges striking the structure. Since then, the system has been recurrently updated and expanded. Presently, data associated with lightning striking the tower are collected at six different sites.
