AbstractLightning Image Sensor (LIS), an optical instrument on board of the TRMM satellite, provides total lightning information over the tropics since 1997, which includes the whole Brazil. In this work, the cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning distribution over Brazil is estimated based on a 13-year dataset (1998-2010) of total lightning with 0.5º, 0.25º, and 0.1º resolutions. Instrument detection efficiency and view-time corrections were used to compensate variations due the diurnal cycle and differential sampling over the equator and tropics. The resulting cloud-to-ground flash density map indicates that Brazil presents regions with distinct lightning activity patterns (South, North and Southeast) which are correlated to distinct meteorological conditions. These meteorological systems are associated with the thunderstorms over the different parts of the country, for example, large mesoscale convective systems in the south, small convective systems in the north and a transition area over the southeast part. A more comprehensive analysis is presented in a joint paper during this same conference. Comparison with a previous low-resolution map (1º resolution) helped to evaluate whether the CG lightning patterns remained unchanged when the resolution is increased. On the other hand, the higher resolution reveals some new features not observed in the previous low-resolution map.
