Chemicals like sodium iodide were initially used but now potassium chloride is preferred over sodium iodide as it has some side effects but then too even sodium iodide is still used.

by cloud seeding we can produced artificial rain .!!


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.


Is cloud seeding a rain theft?

no


Where does cloud seeding happen?

Cloud seeding is done in arid areas - where clouds might form, but not produce rain. Seeding the cloud with microscopic 'dust' - forces water droplets to form - which eventually combine and fall as rain.


What are good things about cloud seeding?

You can get rain where you want or need it.

Is cloud seeding rain theft?

No, cloud seeding is a method used to enhance precipitation in clouds, not steal rain. It involves dispersing substances into the air to encourage cloud droplets to form and fall as precipitation. Cloud seeding is a way to potentially increase rainfall in certain areas, but it does not take away rain from other areas.


What are the steps in cloud seeding?

It makes the clouds rain and that is all that matters


Can you make it rain?

Yes, through cloud seeding, which is done with airplanes.


How has cloud seeding been used in russia?

By attempting to incraese rain


How much of the UAE rainfall is artificial?

Off hand I cannot provide an accurate figure, but would speculate that about 60% of the total annual rainfall (currently) is artificial. The Abu Dhabi government has a program of cloud seeding, particularly over the mountainous regions around Al Ain. Typically the area has heavy cloud build up in the late summer months, but no rain; seeding increases the liklihood of rain in the region.


What is cloud seeding and is it effective?

Cloud seeding - is dropping quantities of microscopic particles into the upper atmosphere - with the intention that water molecules will 'stick' to the particles - and thus create rain.
