Electric fields are observed according to the investigation of atmospheric clouds. In an inhomogeneous gyrotropic medium occurrence of vortex structures is stochastically determined. Gyrotropy of atmosphere and ionosphere is caused by the Coriolis force and the motion of charged particles in the geomagnetic field. Vortices of plasma nature are registered in the atmosphere. The origin of the electric field of plasma vortices occurs in the fields of pressure gradients mosaic mesh topology is conditioned by the ionization of particles associated with the solar photon flux and the cosmic radiation. Atmospheric aerosol particles play an important role in generation of vortices. It is shown that the geomagnetic field produces structural changes of an inhomogeneous medium with excitation of plasma vortices and their interaction. During collisions of vortices centered on the same geomagnetic line one powerful vortex can occur. The collision of vortices with centers at different geomagnetic field lines may cause appearance of areas of heating and jet streams production. Since vortices transfer mass and energy, generation of new vortices in an inhomogeneous field of the plasma vortices damping is possible.
Keywords: gyrotropy, plasma vortices, the geomagnetic field, electric fields of the atmosphere, aerosol particles, ionosphere
