During our observation period, one short and four long bursts were detected. Short burst with 3-millisecond duration was detected on 31 Dec. 2014. At the same time, cloud-to-ground lightning occurred. Considering the AEF polarity, we identified the occurrence of the positive cloud-to-ground lightning, which produced the short burst.
