Given an;applied research and <br />engineering effort to refine and confirm present cloud seeding techniques <br />and provide analysis of parameters in storms pertinent to a more fully <br />identified seeding criteria, a justifiable continuous operation could be <br />initiated in the Upper Colorado River Basin within 10 years involving: <br /> <br />Seeding within well-defined and localized target areas by <br /> <br />remote-controlled ground-based generators using silver <br />iodide <br /> <br />Seeding susceptible winter storms at high elevations to increase <br /> <br />winter snowpack <br /> <br />Not considered in this paper are modification of winter precipitation in <br /> <br />ment of the techniques assumed available by the mid-1970'"s and develop- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ment of completely new methods represent spectulative possibilities <br />for further enhancing Basin water supplies through weather modification. <br /> <br />Temperature and Seeding Criteria <br />Preliminary selection of target areas and identification of the possible <br /> <br />seeding season depends to a large extent on meeting temperature <br /> <br />It-:r!< <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />~-" <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />~~.;}:~~.:: ~ <br /> <br /> <br />I <br /> <br /> <br />ti<<~* <br />~~~:~ <br /> <br />~~f~~i~~ <br />~!t~~~: <br />~t;f;:;i..~ <br />7 ~~~f~; <br />~~~li'~l?~iI~1r,~d <br /> <br />parameters of cloud seeding criteria, <br />
