(meteorobs) meteorobs:Electromagnetic energy produced by a meteoroid

[drobnock]

This has been discussed before. But I am not fully comprehending.  It is
known that a meteoroid produces kinetic energy. What value in watts or
joules for radio frequency electromagnetic energy are produced as a
meteor enters the atmosphere? From wiki - " For example, scientists at
NASA suggested that the turbulent ionized wake of a meteor interacts
with the Earth's magnetic field, generating pulses of radio waves. As
the trail dissipates, megawatts of electromagnetic power could be
released,...."  How are/is the kinetic energy translated in to real time
electromagnetic energy? Is it possible that the electromagnetic energy
produced is over estimated from kinetic energy? If nothing else any
paper references?
