"This eBook is displayed using 100% recycled electrons."
and draw up the maps and find out why more lightning occurs on the highveld than the cape
Will you be using topographical maps? Because maybe part of the reason is because it is closer to the clouds? Jo'Burg is 1753m closer to the clouds on average than Cape Town is as an example..
i will be looking at topography (which btw, valleys get more lightning...), urbanisation [more air pollution = more condensation nuclei = more lightning] and the mineral composition of the underlying bedrock...

That sounds very interesting! Do you have models of electrostatic build-up before a strike?

The kernel of f, defined as ker(f) = {a in R : f(a) = 0} is an ideal in R. Every ideal in a commutative ring R arises from some ring homomorphism in this way. For rings with identity, the kernel of a ring homomorphism is a subring without identity.
