<br />3 <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />physically determined cI imatological variabil ity can explain the apparent c(m- <br /> <br />tradictory results of previous rainfall augmentation and hail suppression programs. <br /> <br />The final objective is even more specific. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's <br /> <br /> <br />High Plains Cooperative Program (H IP LEX) is currently scheduled to begin a multi- <br /> <br /> <br />year, randomized, convective rain augmentation program at Miles City, Montana, <br /> <br />in the summer of 1979. The model will be exercised in the attempt to theoretically <br /> <br />investigate ice-phase seeding agents, seeding rates, evaluation techniques, and <br /> <br />projected effects due to seeding on rainfall and hailfall in this specific geographical <br /> <br />region in the Western High Plains of the Central United States. Problems of <br /> <br />technology transfer of seeding techniques from this specific site to other locations <br /> <br />and geographical and climatological areas will also be addressed within the context <br /> <br />of the model. <br /> <br />: <br />
