The presence of SLW is essential for weather modifi- <br />cation activities aimed at precipitation increase. <br /> <br />2. Examine the metero10gica1 conditions associated with the <br />occurrence of SLW and estimate their importance to its <br />production and depletion. <br /> <br />3. Examine the airflow patterns and associated transport and <br />dispersion of tracing material over and around the <br />orographic barri ers to assess vari ous c"' oud seedi ng del i very <br />techniques. <br /> <br />A number of sophisticated instrumentation systems are required to <br />meet the stated goals. These are described in more detail in <br />Chapter III. Briefly, they include: <br /> <br />1. A highly instrumented aircraft capable of monitoring cloud <br />physics characteristics, standard metero1ogica1 parameters, <br />the wind in three-dimensions, and tracer material <br />concentrati ons. <br /> <br />2. A microwave radiometer to passively monHor the vertica.lly <br />integrated amounts of SLW and water vapor. <br /> <br />- <br />
