<br /> 111e primary ob1ectives of this evaluation have been to 1) test the
<br /> physical concepts of weather modification potential, and 2) test. the
<br /> praet~ca~ VeatOer mod1ticat1on potential tor an operat1ons program, as
<br /> carried out 1n the Colorado River Baa in Pilot Project during the five
<br /> winters ot H/U-/l througn J.~/q-/~. J.ne [lrst ObJectlve ~s appI'oac.ne.a
<br /> throlJgll an investigation of nucleant dispersion based on "ind floW', an
<br /> analysis of precipitation and rawinsonde data that is essentially diag-
<br /> nOstic in character, and an analysis of surface runoff related to pre-
<br /> cipitation. The second objective 10 carried out through detailed .
<br /> analyses of precipitation and other records for all five yeats of the
<br /> pilar; project operation. Conclusions and recom~endations are presente~
<br /> vhich can serve .. guidance material for planning orographic research
<br /> projects.
