Workshop <br />on Theoretical and Practical Aspects 0/ Regional Precipitation Enhancement Programme for the <br />Middle Easiand Mediterranean, Bari~ Italy. 12 pp. <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />The Atmospheric Sciences Center (ASC) of the Desert Research Institute (DR!) has conducted field <br />programs in weather modification and cloud seeding for more than 30 years, in several states of the U.S.A. <br />and in other countries. These studies have included detailed research on the microphysical structure of <br />cloud, the effects of aerosol on cloud droplet and ice crystal chemistry, and the use of remote sensing <br />instrumentation to characterize cloud. evolution and identify seedable conditions. This paper describes <br />some of the recent results of these ongoing efforts. <br /> <br />II. Satellite remote sensing of droplet-aerosol parameters <br /> <br />ill.
