Weather modification technique called cloud seeding disperses substances into the air, acting as cloud condensation or ice nuclei to induce rainfall. Historically, proposals for cloud seeding date back to 1891. Methods have evolved, using substances like silver iodide or dry ice dispersed by ground generators or aircraft. Cloud seeding's effectiveness varies depending on weather conditions. It requires moisture-filled clouds and is more successful in certain types of clouds. While some projects demonstrate a 10% or greater annual increase in snowpack, establishing statistically significant results remains challenging. The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) highlights challenges like the lack of reliable information on optimal cloud seeding practices and its long-term effects. Public and policymakers often face immediate water needs, which can complicate long-term research efforts.
