Innovative Cloud Seeding Program in UAE Addresses Water Scarcity Creating Artificial Rain: Simply Amazing

 UAE faces water scarcity due to arid climate and high temperatures, leading to innovative solutions like cloud seeding for artificial rain.


- Cloud seeding involves introducing seeding agents into clouds to stimulate condensation and trigger rainfall, with the UAE using natural salts as seeding agents to address environmental concerns.

- The UAE's Rain Enhancement Program (UAEREP) manages the cloud seeding program, collaborating with international scientific and technical research institutions.

- Specialized aircraft equipped with hygroscopic flares release seeding agents into conducive clouds, where salt particles serve as nuclei for water droplets to condense and eventually fall as precipitation.

- Despite potential benefits, concerns have been raised about the environmental impact and safety of seeding agents, with the NCM addressing these concerns by developing its own natural seeding agent and ensuring the safety and sustainability of its operations.
