Lightning is considered to be a sensitive indicator of global change in the troposphere. In this paper we report the first results from the lightningatmospherics (sferics) counter deployed as part of the VELOX II experiment at Halley Station, Antarctica (76°S,27°W). We present examples of high-resol...
