Jeff's post about clouds over the arctic is interesting. If low
altitude clouds are beneficial in the summer and detrimental in the
other seasons, they can be seeded during the non-summer months to
prevent them from heating the land. They can be seeded in strategic
places also. Over the ocean to pr
Hello Mike et al,
I agree entirely with you Mike that seeding can cause ice fogs to disperse.
Also electrostatic droplet seeding could help dissipate warm fogs. I should
have more carefully indicated that I was focusing on seeding of clouds
containing ice, and particularly mixed-phase clouds.
Hi John,
I saw some research somewhere that said that global cloud cover had
decreased over the past decades, contributing slightly to global
warming. But I can't find it now. Do you know about it? Could it be
due to black carbon? Here's an extract from a Hansen essay:
'Black carbon aero

Thanks, Jeff. That's most helpful.
I expect there will be some follow up questions, and I'd be grateful if
you could respond to them.
