Science Spotlight: Volcanic Lighting in Dirty Thunderstorms

Volcanic lightning is not only one of the most mysterious and impressive phenomena observed in some volcanic eruptions, but also important to science.

What creates volcanic lightning?
Volcanic lightning can be created in different scenarios during explosive volcanic eruptions, and are often called “dirty thunderstorms.” These “dirty thunderstorms” are a dramatic form of static electricity release.
In regular thunderstorms, lightning happens when ice is present inside clouds and becomes electrified during collisions in vertical updrafts. Without ice, there is no lightning.
In the case of volcanic lightning, however, lightning occurs when oppositely charged particles such as fragmented pieces o…Open article
