• Cloud seeding is a weather modification technique used to stimulate rainfall by introducing specific substances into clouds.
• Learn how this process works and its potential applications in India.

How Does Cloud Seeding Work?

The process of cloud seeding begins with identifying suitable clouds that have enough moisture. Aircraft or ground-based generators release the seeding agents into the atmosphere. These agents interact with the cloud's moisture, promoting the formation of larger water droplets that eventually fall as rain. The effectiveness of cloud seeding depends on various factors, including the type of cloud, atmospheric conditions, and the seeding material used.
