Weather modification, also known as cloud seeding, is the scientific study and application of technologies aimed at altering precipitation processes at the micro scale. This includes modifying clouds for precipitation enhancement. The goal of weather modification is to mitigate the impact of severe weather events, such as droughts, floods, and hail storms, and to improve precipitation distribution for agricultural and water resource management purposes.

Cloud seeding involves introducing substances like silver iodide, dry ice, or salt into clouds to enhance precipitation. This process can be achieved through various methods, including aircraft and ground-based generators. The science behind cloud seeding is complex, requiring a deep understanding of cloud microphysics, atmospheric dynamics, and precipitation processes.
MetAtmo brings extensive experience to the field of weather modification, with a strong background in cloud microphysics, precipitation science, and innovative sensing technologies.
