LI Accumulated Flashes - MTG - 0 degreeLI Level 2 Accumulated Flashes (AF) complements the LI Level 2 Accumulated Flash Area
(AFA) by providing one with the variation of the number of events within those regions
reported to have lightning flashes in the Accumulated Flash Area (AFA). Accumulated
Flashes provide users with data about the mapping of the number of LI events/detections
rather than the mapping of flashes. One should keep in mind that the absolute value
within each pixel of the Accumulated Flashes has no real physical meaning; it is rather
a proxy for the pixel-by-pixel variation of the number of events. It is worth noting
that one can derive the flash rate over a region encompassing a complete lightning
feature (not within an FCI grid pixel) in Accumulated Flashes; this stems from the
definition in Accumulated (gridded) data.
