Artificial Rain: What, Why and How?

Have you ever wondered if humans can control the weather and make it rain whenever and wherever they want? Well, the answer is yes, to some extent.

In this blog post, we will explore the science, methods, benefits, and drawbacks of artificial rain. What is artificial rain? Artificial rain is the process of artificially inducing or increasing precipitation by dispersing external agents, such as silver iodide, dry ice, or salts, into clouds using aircraft or by dispersion devices located on the ground. These particles act as nuclei to provide a base for snowflakes or raindrops to form. After cloud seeding takes place, the newly formed snowflakes or raindrops quickly grow and fall from the clouds back to the surface of the earth, resulting ...
