The sound that results from the formation of lightning. This burst of lightning expands air around it, producing an effect similar to an explosion, thus creating the noise. 2, record 1, English, - thunder
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Thunder is the noise caused by the explosive expansion of air due to the heat generated by a lightning discharge. Thunder may have a sharp cracking sound when lightning is close by, compared to a rumbling noise produced by more distant strokes. 3, record 1, English, - thunder
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Thunder ... moves through the atmosphere at a speed of about one mile in five seconds. To obtain the distance in miles of a lightning bolt, count the number of seconds between flash and thunder, then divide by five. 4, record 1, English, - thunder

Onde acoustique, se manifestant par un bruit sec ou un roulement sourd, accompagnant un éclair et qui est due à la dilatation brusque de l'air par réchauffement le long du trajet de l'éclair. 2, record 1, French, - tonnerre
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'impression auditive de roulement perçue par un observateur à distance a pour origine un phénomène de battement entre les ondes émises tout au long de l'éclair. Le tonnerre peut être entendu jusqu'à environ 25 kilomètres de distance. En raison de la vitesse de la lumière (300 000 kilomètres par seconde) la détection visuelle d'un éclair peut être considérée comme instantanée, alors que le «coup de tonnerre» qui lui est associé se transfère à la vitesse du son, soit approximativement 330 mètres par seconde. Ainsi en divisant par trois l'écart de temps exprimé en secondes entre la perception de l'éclair et l'audition du coup de tonnerre, on obtient une estimation approchée de la distance de l'orage, en kilomètres. 2, record 1, French, - tonnerre

Ruido que produce un rayo cuando se propaga por la atmósfera. 2, record 1, Spanish, - trueno
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
En el instante que se produce el rayo se origina el trueno. El calor producido por la descarga eléctrica calienta el aire y lo expande bruscamente, dando lugar a ondas de presión que se propagan como ondas sonoras. Cuando esas ondas sonoras pasan sobre el observador, este percibe el ruido denominado trueno. Como la velocidad de la luz es de 300.000 km/s, el relámpago se ve casi al instante en que tiene efecto, pero no ocurre lo mismo con el trueno, ya que el sonido se propaga más lentamente, a unos 300 m/s. Por esto el trueno se oye después de desaparecer el relámpago. 3, record 1, Spanish, - trueno
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Se debe a la expansión rápida de los gases a lo largo de un canal de descarga eléctrica. 4, record 1, Spanish, - trueno

The distinction is with continuous noise which corrupts data in a different way, requiring a different kind of error correction. In optical memory, most data loss is due to burst errors. The design of an error correction code depends on how often error bursts are likely to occur, and how long the longest burst is likely to be. 2, record 4, English, - burst
