Strong electric fields are observed when probing atmospheric clouds. The current distribution is determined by electric fields and the environment conductivity. The emergence of vortex structures is stochastically determined in a heterogeneous gyrotropic environment. The gyrotropy of the ionosphere and the atmosphere is associated with Coriolis force due to a rotation of the Earth and also with movements of charged particles in the geomagnetic field. The vortices of plasma nature are observed in the atmosphere. Non-monotonic stratification of unstable plasma irregularities leads to the formation of cellular structures. The manifestation of the electric field of plasma vortices may occur in fields of pressure gradient with a mosaic mesh topology under particles ionization. Aerosol particles play an important role in the atmospheric vortices generation. It is taken into consideration that the forces of the electromagnetic interaction between elements of a flow structure contribute to the intensification of this structure (increase of its energy and involvement of the atmospheric mass into it) by the powerful plasma vortex in the aerosol plasma of atmospheric clouds. The interaction of currents in spiral plasma vortices is determined by their intensity and geometrical parameters of their distribution in space.
Keywords: gyrotropy, plasma vortices, the geomagnetic field, atmospheric electric fields, aerosol particles, ionosphere
