WHAT IS AN ARTIFICIAL RAIN AND HOW IS MADE
Artificial rain- This is a practice of artificially inducing or increasing precipitation through clouds by adding external agents can be Dry Ice(solid carbon dioxide), Silver Iodide, Salt powder etc. This process is known as Cloud Seeding. There are 3 stages to this.
Agitation : Use of chemicals to stimulate the air mass upwind of target area to rise and form clouds. These chemicals absorb water vapour and help in the process of condensation. Chemicals like - Calcium Oxide, compound of Urea and Ammonium Nitrate or Chloride Calcium Carbonate.
Building Up Stage : In the second stage the mass of the cloud is build up by urea, dry ice, kitchen salt etc to increase the density of the clouds.
Seeding : In the final stage of, super cool chemicals (dry ice or iodide) are bombarded onto the base of the clouds to build the beads of water and make them fall as rain.
So there you have it ,so what do you think,will it cause more good than bad or the reverse will be case.
