Dubai Floods: Is artificial rain behind UAE's rare torrential weather?
Dubai Floods: Dubai experienced rare torrential rain, causing widespread flooding and raising concerns about climate change's impact on extreme weather. The UAE's cloud seeding program, initiated in 1982, aims to enhance rainfall by stimulating cloud condensation. Managed by the NCM, the program uses natural salts as seeding agents, avoiding environmental harm. The UAEREP analyzes atmospheric conditions and pollutants to optimize cloud seeding. Despite environmental concerns, the UAE's innovative approach demonstrates its commitment to sustainable solutions amid escalating climate challenges.
