Multi-station synthesis of early twentieth century surface atmospheric electricity measurements for upper tropospheric properties

The vertical columnar current density in the global atmospheric electrical circuit depends on the local columnar resistance. A simple model for the columnar resistance is suggested, which separates the local boundary layer component from the upper troposphere cosmic ray component, and calculates the...
