The Sea Breeze Convergence Zone and Its Relationship to Fair Weather Electricity in East Central Florida

Abstract

This research focused on the relationship between the fair weather electric field and the sea breeze convergence zone at the KSC/CCAFS. Wind sensor and electric field mill data from the CaPE project were analyzed. This study did not reveal any clear indication of a higher electric field during sea breeze convergence. The two phenomena exist, but their interactions would appear to be weak. The expected interaction might be found in bigger data sets or through other types of analysis.
