Abstrakt: An experimental Very Low Frequency (VLF) World-Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) is being developed through collaborations with research institutions across the globe. In this paper we report on the steady improvement in the Detection Efficiency (DE) of the WWLLN due to increasing station number, which led to a doubling in locations provided from 2003–2007. In addition, a new algorithm has recently been implemented which leads to DE improvements of 63%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
