Although lightning-generated whistlers have been studied for nearly a century, there are still questions to be answered. It is clear that, at least in a certain frequency range, these waves significantly contribute to the overall wave intensity in the inner magnetosphere. They also influence distribution functions of energetic particles in the Van Allen radiation belts. Thanks to the on-board implemented neural network for automated whistler detection, we can relate electromagnetic wave and energetic particle flux measurements performed by the low-altitude DEMETER spacecraft with the number and dispersion of whistlers detected during a certain time interval. We distinguish the cases with high and low whistler occurrence and we use this information to determine the overall effect of lightning-generated whistlers. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
