cloud seeding

     

Clou seeding, a form of weather modification, is the attempt 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 alters the microphysical processes within the cloud. The usual intent is to increase precipitation (rain or snow), but hail and fog suppression and are also widely practiced.
