  1. Apr 17, 2024 · The U.A.E. National Centre of Meteorology says cloud seeding can boost rainfall from a specific cloud by 25 per cent under optimal conditions, and the technology "plays a crucial role in the...

  2. Apr 19, 2024 · Researchers have spent decades trying to ‘seed’ clouds and force them to generate rain or snow—with varying levels of success. Here’s how it works. Clouds floating over withered crops and...

  3. Cloud seeding is a type of weather modification that aims to change the amount or type of precipitation, mitigate hail or disperse fog. The usual objective is to increase rain or snow, either for its own sake or to prevent precipitation from occurring in days afterward.

  4. Apr 17, 2024 · Cloud seeding involves manipulating existing clouds to help produce more rain. This can be done by using aircraft to drop small particles (like silver iodide) into clouds. Water vapour can...

  5. Mar 16, 2021 · It’s used today to boost precipitation in at least eight states across the western U.S. and dozens of countries around the world. Interest in cloud seeding is growing as temperatures steadily...

  6. Apr 20, 2024 · What Is Cloud Seeding? Cloud seeding aims at producing rain or snow by introducing particles into clouds that act as condensation nuclei and promote precipitation. The practice dates back to the 1940s. Goals of cloud seeding are improving water supplies and crop yields and preventing hail and storm damage to sensitive regions. How It Works

  7. Apr 22, 2024 · Artificial rain, also known as cloud seeding is what’s known as a weather modification technique. It artificially alters the weather by enhancing the ability of clouds to produce so-called “artificial rain” or snow, which can help meet the precipitation needs of a particular region.
