摘要
The spatial and temporal developments of sprite streamers in the mesosphere are discussed in the context of the data recorded on August 27, 2009. Streamers initiate at approximately 75 km in altitude and are seen to propagate first downward and subsequently upward. Streamer splitting is observed as the streamers propagate. The streamer tips are approximately three times brighter than the planet Jupiter.
