The data obtained by the World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) in the territory of Zabaykal’e are compared with the data received by the equipment for observations of Earth’s natural pulse electromagnetic field installed in Buryatia. Diurnal and seasonal dependence of lightning strokes observed in Zabaikal’e territory were obtained. It was shown that the maxima in diurnal variation registered by the instrumentation in Buryatiya coincide with the main world lightning sources.
