| 545 | |a Vlad Mazur has been a physicist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration/National Severe Storms Laboratory in Oklahoma since 1984. His research interests include lightning physics, lightning-aircraft interaction, computer simulation of lightning processes, interaction of lightning with ground structures, and lightning protection and its physical aspects. He was a pioneer of high-speed photography of lightning in the early 1990s. | ||
