What is artificial rain inducement?

Artificial rain inducement is know as cloud seeding. There are three methods for cloud seeding: static, dynamic and hygroscopic.Static cloud seeding is done by spreading silver iodide, or another chemical substance like it, into clouds. The moisture in the air condenses around the silver iodide molecules and then falls to the ground in the form of rain.Dynamic cloud seeding is basically a much more complex form of static cloud seeding. Dynamic cloud seeding is divided into eleven complicated steps, and failure to properly complete one of them can result in the ruin of the entire project. Thus, dynamic cloud seeding is generally considered more unstable than static cloud seeding.Hygroscopic cloud seeding involves shooting salt crystals into the lower regions of clouds. The moisture in the clouds condenses on the salt crystals and than falls down to the grown as rain.

How cloud seeding done?

Cloud seeding attempts to change the amount or type of precipitation that falls from clouds, by dispersing substances (e.g. microscopic silver iodide crystals, dry ice) into the air that serve as cloud condensation or ice nuclei. The usual intent is to increase precipitation (e.g rain, snow), but hail and fog suppression are also widely practiced in airports. Cloud seeding substances may be dispersed by aircraft or by devices located on the ground (e.g. generators, anti-aircraft guns, rocket launchers). There are still questions as to its actual effectiveness and some of the substances used present possible health hazards.
