A causal relationship between lightning and explosive spread F

Experimental evidence for a causal relationship between lightning and explosive equatorial spread F is presented. It is proposed that explosive spread F is produced by rapidly growing plasma instabilities, which are triggered by sudden increases of the F region ambient electric fields due to the penetration of lightning fields into regions of weak or marginal instability.
