AN OVERVIEW OF THE STRATELEC PROJECT (STRATÉOLE-2 ATMOSPHERIC ELECTRICITY)
Abstract
The STRATELEC (STRatéole-2 ATmospheric ELECtricity) project, funded by the French Space Agency CNES, aims at deploying new atmospheric electricity instrumentation during the last Stratéole-2 balloon campaign [1]. The multidisciplinary STRATELEC project focuses on i) measuring the electrical state of the atmosphere and the production of high-energy radiation through in situ and remote sensing measurements, ii) identifying state-of-the-art and emerging technologies to populate and build the STRATELEC instrumentation package, and iii) contributing to additional scientific returns on any international space mission dedicated to lightning detection and more generally to the study of electrodynamic couplings in the terrestrial atmosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere system.
