Abstract :
It is suggested that the chaotic pulse trains observed in lightning flashes are created as a result of the superposition of several regular pulse bursts produced by dart leader type discharge processes in the cloud. The similarity between the individual pulses in both chaotic and regular pulse bursts strengthen this suggestion.
