Ionospheric effects of earthquakes in Japan in March 2011 obtained from observations of lightning electromagnetic radio signals
Manifestations of disturbances in the lower ionosphere caused by a complex series of earthquakes (the strong earthquakes with M = 7.3 and M = 9 – known as M9 Tohoku EQ – and the subsequent aftershocks) that occurred near the Japanese island of Honshu have been considered with the use of monitoring m...
