JEM-EUSO is a mission intended to detect the fluorescence light produced by the secondary charge particles generated by ultra high energy cosmic rays interacting in the Earth atmosphere. In this work we study in detail the characteristics of longitudinal profiles of electron neutrino showers which, in regions of large air density are dominated by the Landau Pomeranchuk Migdal (LPM) effect. We believe that these characteristics have grate importance for its identification when such showers are observed from the space.
