Details of the conference:

The 11^th Conference on Weather Modification Research and Cloud and Precipitation Physics themes is organized by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The conference will consider weather modification with special emphasis on advances in the subject and prospects. The main themes of the Conference are observational studies and field campaigns, laboratory facilities and studies relevant to the different weather modification topics; numerical modeling, model intercomparisons, verification and assessment studies, new technological developments in seeding platforms, seeding material and methods of delivery, Data-driven models, AI/ML, and statistical methods as applied to current and previous experiments and projects. Weather modification and the physical and socio-economic environment aspects include environmental issues, user requirements, cost-benefit studies, inadvertent weather modification, and climate change and geoengineering. The presentations are solicited for research, development, operational aspects, and new scientific results.
