ATMOSPHERIC ELECTRIC FIELD INDUCTION

Abstract: The origin of the Earth’s electric field is discussed and shown to be a consequence of the selective absorption of solar primary and secondary radiation by electrons in the
substance of the Earth’s surface and atmosphere.

Commentary: This paper reiterates the viewpoint expressed by the author on this subject in his 1972 book ‘Modern Aether Science’.
