The authors make a review of the works carried out at “Paratunka” geophysical observatory of IKIR FEB RAS calculating the response of the electrostatic field strength in the near ground atmosphere (AEF Ez) from space charges with simple configuration transported by wind and located over the conducting surface. They also take into account the natural factor effect on AEF Ez, determined by conductivity variations influenced by radon exhalations, cosmic ray intensity, change of light and heavy ion balance at dusk and dawn and the result of the effect of ionospheric electric current potential on AEF potential. The calculated data are approved on AEF Ez disturbances in the near ground layer of the atmosphere, registered observations, determined by two powerful cyclones which simultaneously arrived from the South to Kamchatka peninsula with superposition on the modal curve.
