Hill pellets in United States
The reading and the lecture are both about the Hail pellets which had led to crop failure, after it was reduced by the cloud seeding in some area of United states. In this process they had sprayed the silver iodide on storm clouds. The author of reading believes that evidence that cloud seeding has been effective in protecting crops from Hail. The lecturer casts doubt on the claims made in the reading passage.
Firstly, the author thinks that laboratory experiments support that, when they had add silver iodide in cold water vapor, they often observed snow forming instead of hail pellets. This point is challenged by the lecturer. He states that it is possible in laboratory. In real life silver iodide prevent the precipitation on cloud, whether it produces the rain, snow or hail. Therefore, decrease in rain causes drought.
Secondly, the author states about evidence from Asia, where cloud seeding has been successfully used to control precipitation in urban area. The lecturer refutes this point by asserting that in urban area more amount of pollutants. He elaborates on this by mentioning that pollutants are more favorable for cloud seeding, so they interact with the clouds. In United States hills pellets were fall in farms where no pollutants are available, so it is not effective.
Finally, the author mentions that local study has been said that, where the cloud seeding was used there was reduced hail damage compared to previous years. The lecturer, on the other hand, states that local study has been done on just that area where cloud seeding was performed. He puts forth the idea that in that year surrounding area of damaged area are all not affected by hill pellets, because of naturally variation on atmosphere.
