What is cloud seeding?
Cloud seeding is a weather modification technique used to encourage rainfall. Aircraft or ground generators release substances like silver iodide into clouds, providing nuclei for water droplets to form and fall. Disaster authorities in Serian are extending this operation, hoping to prompt rain and help clear the hazardous air pollution.
