Исследование охватывает четыре случая грозовой активности: в июне 2019 г., два случая в июне 2020 г. и в июле 2022 г., включая первую зарегистрированную грозу на станции, произошедшую 20 июня 2019 г. Основное внимание уделяется данным утреннего радиозондирования, использованным для построения аэрологических диаграмм и расчета индексов неустойчивости, таких как индекс Бойдена, K-индекс, Vertical Totals, Cross Totals, Total Totals. Анализ условий показал, что над районом формируются воздушные потоки юго-западных направлений, с более теплой, прогретой в летнее время континентальной части, на относительно более холодную северо-восточную акваторию Карского моря, акваторию моря Лаптевых, а также район архипелага Северная Земля. Обнаружено наличие температурной инверсии в приземном слое и устойчиво стратифицированной атмосферы во всех рассматриваемых случаях, что обычно препятствует грозовой активности. Тем не менее фактические случаи гроз выявляют необходимость пересмотра пороговых значений для прогнозирования гроз в условиях высокоширотной Арктики.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The paper study presents a review of synoptic conditions and an analysis of atmospheric radiosonde data collected at the “Ice Base Cape Baranova” research station, operated by the Federal State Budgetary Institution “AARI”. The station is located on the coast of the Shokal’sky Strait at the northern tip of Bolshevik Island (Severnaya Zemlya archipelago). The analysis includes four cases of thunderstorm activity: one case in June 2019, two cases in June 2020 and one case in July 2022. Notably, the first recorded thunderstorm at the station occurred on June 20, 2019. The analysis focused on morning radiosonde data (00:00 UTC) and aimed to construct and evaluate aerological diagrams and calculate various instability indices, including the Boyden Index, K-index, Vertical Totals, Cross Totals and Total Totals. The findings reveal diverse synoptic conditions at the surface, while the upper troposphere consistently exhibited the influence of baric trough from the southwest and height ridges from the southeast. In all the cases analyzed, a temperature inversion was observed in the surface layer, typically indicating stable atmospheric stratification. However, the actual occurrence of thunderstorms suggests alternative factors, such as orographic influences and warm air advection, may give rise to these convective processes.</p><p>Although the calculated instability indices generally remained below established thresholds, indicating a low probability of thunderstorms, thunderstorm events were nevertheless recorded. This discrepancy highlights the need to adapt existing criteria for predicting thunderstorm activity in the High Arctic. This study underscores the importance of further research to enhance understanding of atmospheric dynamics in Polar Regions and improve predictive models for convective weather phenomena.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Арктика</kwd><kwd>гроза</kwd><kwd>неустойчивость атмосферы</kwd><kwd>индексы неустойчивости</kwd><kwd>конвекция</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Arctic</kwd><kwd>thunder and lightning</kwd><kwd>atmospheric instability</kwd><kwd>instability indices</kwd><kwd>convection</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Исследование выполнено в рамках НИТР 5.1 Росгидромета на 2025–2029 гг. «Развитие моделей, методов и технологий мониторинга и прогнозирования состояния атмосферы, океана, морского ледяного покрова, ледников и вечной мерзлоты, процессов взаимодействия льда с природными объектами и инженерными сооружениями для Арктики»; регистрационный номер НИТР 125040704938-7</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The research was carried out within the framework of the scientific research and technology works 5.1 of Roshydromet for 2025–2029. “Development of models, methods and technologies for monitoring and forecasting the state of the atmosphere, ocean, sea ice cover, glaciers and permafrost (cryosphere), processes of interaction of ice with natural objects and engineering structures for the Arctic”; STW registration number 125040704938-7</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Третий оценочный доклад об изменениях климата и их последствиях на территории Российской Федерации.
