• Convectional precipitation
results from the heating of
the earth’s surface that
causes air to rise rapidly.
As the air rises, it cools and
moisture condenses into
clouds and precipitation.

• Heavy, large drop of rain • Usually last longer and
and usually only last a are made up of smaller
period of time droplets of water.
Snow
• It is created when
moisture and wind are
together.
Shapes of hail particles:
Spherical

Artificially Induced Precipitation
1. Agitation :
The first stage includes the use of chemicals to stimulate the air mass
upwind of target area to rise and form clouds. These chemicals absorbs
the water vapour and helps in the process of condensation. Chemicals
like - Calcium Oxide, compound of Urea and Ammonium
Nitrate or Chloride Calcium Carbonate.
3. Seeding :
2. Building Up Stage : In the final stage of
persuing the artificial rain,
In the second stage the mass of super cool chemicals (dry
the cloud is build up by urea, dry ice or iodide) are
ice, kitchen salt etc to increase bombarded with the
the density of the clouds. presurized canister onto
the base of the clouds to
build the beads of water
and make them fall as rain.
