@article{oai:nagoya.repo.nii.ac.jp:00031438, author = {Kimpara, Atsushi}, issue = {1}, journal = {Memoirs of the Faculty of Engineering, Nagoya University}, month = {Sep}, note = {This paper is the summary of the study on the waveform from 1940 to 1956, especially from 1955 to 1956. The waveform is classified into two groups, i.e. the one in the daytime and the other at night. The waveform in the daytime consists of (1) stepped leader stroke type, partial discharge within cloud type, successive discharges among clouds type, (2) return streamer type, (3) multiple stroke type, while the slow tail type and the reflection echo type are generally found at night, relatively seldom in the daytime. That in the night time consists of (4) stepped leader stroke type, partial discharge within cloud type, successive discharges among clouds type, (5) return streamer type, (6) slow tail type, (7) reflection echo type and (8) long train type. General features of waveforms, frequency characteristics and their dependence on distance are fully discussed with annexed photographs.}, pages = {1--18}, title = {The waveforms of atmospherics-II}, volume = {9}, year = {1957} }
