Thursday, May 4, 2023

When a drought leads to fires, crop failures and water shortages, the significance of weather becomes vitally important.

Key Points: 
  • When a drought leads to fires, crop failures and water shortages, the significance of weather becomes vitally important.
  • For nearly 80 years, an approach called cloud seeding has, in theory, given people the ability to get more rain and snow from storms and make hailstorms less severe.
  • But only recently have scientists been able to peer into clouds and begin to understand how effective cloud seeding really is.
  • Katja Friedrich, a professor of atmospheric and oceanic sciences at the University of Colorado, Boulder in the U.S., is a leading researcher on cloud seeding.
  • “When we do cloud seeding, we are looking for clouds that have tiny super-cooled liquid droplets,” she explains.
  • In 2017, Friedrich’s research group had a breakthrough in measuring the effect of cloud seeding.
  • Both Freidrich and Bangsund emphasized that cloud seeding, while effective in some cases, cannot be used everywhere.
