Short summary

In the atmospheric sciences and air quality studies, there is a widespread use of models which follows the trajectory of air particles. This paper provides the description and validation of the algorithm which parameterizes the vertical transport of air particles due to convective storms in the trajectory component of the model IL-GLOBO, which combines a trajectory model with a meteorological global-scale model, maintaining the consistency between the assumptions made by the two components.
