Soon, artificial cloud chambers to study how to enhance, suppress weather events
Business Standard|September 13, 2024
India's newly approved Mission Mausam, with an outlay of ₹2,000 crore, among other things, will look to create artificial clouds in laboratories or chambers to study the enhancement or suppression of weather events such as rain, hail, or fog.

These studies and experiments conducted through cloud seeding will help in gradually moving more towards the next phase of weather management rather than just forecasting by 2047, Ministry of Earth Sciences (MOES) Secretary M Ravichandran told reporters.

The cloud chambers could be set up either at the Noida-based National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting or the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology in Pune.

Globally, countries such as China have been working on creating cloud chambers to conduct experiments on managing the weather.
