Estimates of lightning NO<sub>x</sub> production from GOME satellite observations

Tropospheric NO<sub>2</sub> column retrievals from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) satellite spectrometer are used to quantify the source strength and 3-D distribution of lightning produced nitrogen oxides (NO<sub>x</sub>=NO+NO<sub>2</sub>). A sharp...
