What do you think about the onset of extreme rainfalls in UAE. Is there any negative impact of excessive "cloud seeding" during 2019 (185 times)
Cloud seeding: is a type of weather modification that aims to change the amount or type of precipitation that falls from clouds by dispersing substances into the air that serve as cloud condensation or ice nuclei, which alter the microphysical processes within the cloud.
I think we should pay more attention to the solar cycle and sunspots now that we have increased rainfall
It would be another parameter to discuss about, agree with you Zainab Mohammadi
The process of cloud formation, droplet growth and precipitation is a very complex one; And downstream into the atmosphere), topographic features (elevation and altitude).

From the behavior of clouds, we find that cloud fertilization requires accurate knowledge to select the most appropriate method, time and place for cloud fertilization. Therefore, it is necessary to first identify the behavior and characteristics of clouds in each region, using instruments such as radars and probes, Because any improper use of the cloud may not only help cloud fertility but also disrupt its normal rainfall. For example, they sometimes add silver iodide into the cloud to fertilize (grow droplets). Successful fertilization, therefore, requires careful knowledge of the thermodynamics of the cloud (amount of water vapor, temperature, upstream and downstream currents, chemical and physical properties of the aerosols inside it, etc.) to the exact amount of iodine needed to enter the cloud, Select the amount of freeze needed or any other method Excessive amounts may even stop the droplets from growing and destroying the cloud.
So the first step in fertilizing the clouds, Accurate understanding of the behavior and mechanism of clouds dynamics in each region of the country, Creating suitable infrastructures (stations equipped with radar, probes) is a constant observation of the clouds; Otherwise, without careful scientific study, it will not only result in significant economic and environmental damage, but it may also worsen the current situation and waste time and national capital.
