3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3 From: Kim Genareau <kdg@xxxxxx> Hello everyone, If you, your students, or your colleagues want to share any new research regarding lightning simulation and experimentation, please see a session that we are convening for the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting. The conference will be hybrid, so if you cannot attend in person (New Orleans December 13-17) you can do so virtually. AE004 - Lightning in a Bottle: Advances in the Experimental Generation of Electrical Discharges Lightning occurs on Earth and other planets in a range of dynamic environments (thunderstorms, volcanic/wildfire ash plumes) where atmospheric conditions and multi-phase microphysical interactions may vary substantially both spatially and temporally. To constrain the electromagnetic characteristics of lightning and its physical/chemical effects on materials, various methods are utilized, including rocket-triggered lightning experiments, shock-tube decompression experiments, and current/voltage impulse experiments. This session aims to bridge typically disparate disciplines (electrical engineering, atmospheric electricity, volcanology, and planetary science) by focusing on the unique findings provided by lightning simulation experiments and how these experimental methods can be improved to shed light on the known unknowns. Studies focused on any aspect of simulating or generating lightning in a laboratory or real-world setting are highly encouraged, particularly if they can be linked to remote sensing measurements and/or numerical modelling results. Invited speakers: Harald Edens, Director of Langmuir Laboratory for Atmospheric Research, New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology; and Gerhard Wurm, Universität Duisburg-Essen Conveners: Kimberly Genareau, The University of Alabama; Joshua Mendez Harper, University of Oregon; and Corrado Cimarelli, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich Abstracts are due August 4th, and we hope to see you there (either in New Orleans or on-line)! 3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3 ============================================================== Volcano Listserv is a collaborative venture among Arizona State University (ASU), Portland State University (PSU), the Global Volcanism Program (GVP) of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, and the International Association for Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI).
