“…In the regions of high water content the formation of the precipitation particles capable to reach the ground takes place. This model appended with the equations describing the aerosol-droplet interaction [15] was used for the investigations of the vertical transport of the aerosol particle injected in the atmosphere as a result of the powerful explosion. The results of numerical experiments showed that the process of so called «nucleation coalescence» [16] is responsible for the rate of the capture of the large aerosol particles by the cloud drops.…”

It is well known that convective clouds play an essential role in the evolution of the aerosol particles in the atmosphere by providing spatial redistribution and transformation of aerosol due to in cloud chemical reactions, dynamical and microphysical processes. The influence of the clouds upon the aerosol properties increase greatly in extreme conditions, such as volcano eruptions, explosions, large fires, when enormous number of aerosol particles of different size and chemical compound are injected in the atmosphere. In this paper the overview of the main results, obtained by the authors in the field of numerical modeling of the convective clouds, developing in natural and extreme conditions and the investigation of their role in the evolution of the atmospheric aerosol is presented.
