When a moderately strong

Now, a new study suggests that a different sort
of shock can
create the same banding patterns: a
lightning bolt.
In the winter, intermixing
of stratospheric ozone with the troposphere in a process called Stratospheric Tropospheric Exchange (STE) is the chief means
of ozone transport into our air, but Dr. Wang says in summertime that process subsides and
lightning bolts create significant ozone enhancements in the middle to upper troposphere, particularly in the Southeastern US.
