#CoronaDischarges Glow on Trees Under Thunderstorms: https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2025GL119591 -> Thunderstorms conjure ghostly coronae in treetops, observed outdoors for the first time: https://news.agu.org/press-release/thunderstorms-conjure-ghostly-coronae-in-treetops-observed-outdoors-for-the-first-time/ - the weak electric discharges may set off ultraviolet sparkles over large swaths of forest under storms, potentially impacting canopy health (this is fringe geophysics but some amateur astronomers are going after corona discharges - esp. in webcam images from mountain sites - with a vengeance, so here goes).
