<br />and all data handling procedures established during the first 6 months and maintained by <br />the scientific team. <br /> <br />. Annual monitoring reviews by senior e~-perts who initially designed the project were very <br />helpful in maintaining the project's continuity and its original goals and objectives and <br />should be provided in future projects. <br /> <br />. External evaluation team monitoring of the project was found useful when combined with <br />the annual monitoring reviews and should be provided in future projects. <br /> <br />Training <br /> <br />. Long-term training was found to be an excellent alternative for specific research contracts. <br />The master's-le\"el student research and theses on project-related topics were very <br />successful in transferring high-level eJl.-pertise to ~forocco and accomplishing research <br />goals. This type of activity is highly recommended. <br /> <br />. Long-term students should start their training at the beginning of the project so that their <br />findings contribute to the project design and they may participate in its operations and <br />evaluation. <br /> <br />. Scientific collaboration between indi\'idual ~foroccan and American experts in cloud <br />physics. radar. numerical modeling. and field operations was found to be very effecti\"e <br />with scientific interaction in ~Iorocco followed bv continued research in the United States. <br />Frequent quarterly or trimester trips to Morocco and annual trips to the United States <br />were the most producti\'e. This form of informal scientific interaction and educational <br />exchange was one of the most successful aspects of technology transfer and is highly <br />recommended for future projects. <br /> <br />. Peace Corps English language training was very successful and is recommended for future <br />projects. <br /> <br />Operations <br /> <br />. Sufficient time and resources for the conduct of field operations and the physical and <br />statistical evaluation of results should be incorporated into the original project design to <br />permit a comprehensive evaluation of the seeding effects so that the host country may <br />make sound scientific and economic decisions regarding the application of weather <br />modification as a water resources management option. <br /> <br />. Co-location of operational and research facilities such as aircraft. operations directors, <br />and scientific teams is highly recommended. <br /> <br />. A comprehensh-e equipment procurement, installation, inventory control. and training <br />plan is needed at the beginning of the project. This plan should include detailed training <br />needs for electronics and maintenance technicians and equipment managers. <br /> <br />x <br />
