Delhi govt's cloud seeding efforts this week completely failed. Delhi IIT study uses parameters such as cloud temperature, water vapour levels, humidity in Delhi during October to February.
TV news channels assured viewers that once the cloud-seeding was completed, rain could be expected anytime. 'Jab chaho, baarish kar lo,' claimed Times Now Navbharat.
While the cloud seeding could not induce rain Tuesday due to insuffient moisture levels, IIT Kanpur said it found a silver lining as the trial delivered 'valuable insights'.
Moisture content remained low at 10-15%, which is not ideal for cloud seeding, but this situation is suitable for judging effectiveness in low-moisture conditions, says IIT Kanpur.
Delhi government & IIT Kanpur plan to hold 9-10 more cloud seeding trials in coming days in bid to combat air pollution, but experts say weather conditions are not favourable.
