👉 Rain engineering, also known as weather modification, involves human intervention to influence precipitation patterns and enhance rainfall in specific areas. This can be achieved through various techniques, such as cloud seeding, where substances like silver iodide or dry ice are dispersed into clouds to encourage the formation of ice crystals and subsequent rainfall. Other methods include using wind machines to mix warmer air with cooler air, promoting cloud development, and even employing lasers or other technologies to alter atmospheric conditions. The primary goals of rain engineering are to mitigate drought, support agriculture, replenish water supplies, and manage flood risks. However, its effectiveness and environmental impacts remain subjects of ongoing research and debate.
