Resonances in the Earth-Ionosphere Cavity and ELF Propagation
This book deals with electromagnetic resonance in the Earth-ionosphere waveguide and ELF propagation, by describing a general approach to the physical problems, electromagnetic ways to solve them, and properties of the solutions obtained. Attention is given to the discussion and interpretation of theoretical and experimental data and their links to global atmospheric conditions such as global thunderstorm activity, the lower ionosphere etc.Schumann resonance is related to stationary (or background) world-wide thunderstorm activity and simultaneously to global properties of the lower ionosphere. This resonance phenomenom is shown to be used as a global thermometer for global warming study.Transient events in the ELF/VLF range are another important aspect. These non-stationary signals are natural impulsed radio signals, which can be used to study cloud-to-ionosphere discharge (or mesospheric opitcal emissions) (red sprites, blue jets etc.). Clarification of the underlying physical ideas and their practical applications to this pioneering field are emphasized.

This book on electromagnetic resonance phenomena describes a general approach to physical problems, ways to solve them, and properties of the solutions obtained. Attention is given to the discussion and interpretation of formal and experimental data and their links to global atmospheric conditions such as the dynamics of global thunderstorm activity, variations of the effective height of the lower ionosphere, etc. Schumann resonance is related to worldwide thunderstorm activity, and simultaneously, to global properties of the lower ionosphere. Transverse resonance is predominantly a local phenomenon containing information on the local height and conductivity of the lower ionosphere and on nearby thunderstorm activity. Transient events in ELF-VLF radio propagation are also treated. These are natural pulsed radio signals and/or abrupt changes of manmade VLF radio signals. The transients associated with cloud-to-ionosphere discharges (red sprites, blue jets, trolls) are discussed, and clarification of the underlying physical ideas and their practical applications to pioneer results achieved in the field recently are emphasised.
Electromagnetic Waves in Stratified Media
International Series of Monographs in Electromagnetic Waves, Volume 3: Electromagnetic Waves in Stratified Media provides information pertinent to the electromagnetic waves in media whose properties differ in one particular direction. This book discusses the important feature of the waves that enables communications at global distances. Organized into 13 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the general analysis for the electromagnetic response of a plane stratified medium comprising of any number of parallel homogeneous layers. This text then explains the reflection of electromagnetic waves from planar stratified media. Other chapters consider the oblique reflection of plane electromagnetic waves from a continuously stratified medium. This book discusses as well the fundamental theory of wave propagation around a sphere. The final chapter deals with the theory of propagation in a spherically stratified medium. This book is a valuable resource for electrical engineers, scientists, and research workers.
