| Abstract: | Lightning creates high temperature which breaks N2 and O2 and form NO and O3 through an endothermic process. These endothermic reactions absorb large amount of heat energy from the surroundings, as a result of which cooling may take place. An estimation of cooling produced has been made in this paper. The cooling thus produced may lead to several effects in the atmosphere; one among them could be an increase in rainfall rates. |
