Abstract [en]
In this study, we present the observation of cloud-to-ground (CG) flashes detected surrounding Antarctica Peninsula. Lightning sensors had been setup and deployed at King Sejong station in King George Island, Antarctica Peninsula. The lightning sensors consist of fast and slow electric field sensors that uses parallel plate antenna accompanied with respective buffer circuits. A magnetic field sensor was also deployed with two orthogonal loops antennas. The lightning data were collected between 11th and 31st January 2020. 20 storms have been identified with a total of 176 CG flashes detected. From the total CG, 116 were identified as negative CG flashes while 60 were identified as positive CG flashes.
