Abstract

An inversion algorithm for multistation Schumann resonance measurements is presented and tested in this paper. The location and intensity of the lightning activity is estimated in absolute unit (C ² km ² /s) from the Schumann resonance electromagnetic field components measured at distant observation sites on the globe. We summarize the main steps of the forward modeling for single and multiple sources and describe the main characteristics of the applied inversion. The applicability of the inversion algorithm is tested via synthetic data.
