How does Dubai artificially produce rainfall? The use of drones has become a priority for the community.
Dubai, a city built on the heat of petrodollars, is arguably very inefficient in terms of livability. The main problem is that it is located in an arid and completely desert area, so a lot of innovation has to be done to adapt to this strange area. We are facing a space where rain is striking with its absence for most of the year, so it is necessary, ‘create’ rainfall to combat drought.
It can be said that Dubai is one of those areas where space has been artificially created to build population communities. To get precipitation, there are a series of drones that are specifically designed to be able to carry out chemical processes to produce rainwater. This is an activated project increase the amount of precipitation, with all that is needed. We also face a very controversial action, as it could result in major destabilization in the area.
Let us see, therefore, how the system used by Dubai to produce rain works artificially, why this mechanism can cause serious climate-related problems in neighboring areas of the city and, of course, the extent to which it is a controversial act. It should be noted that countries such as China are also considering its use with the sole purpose of taking advantage of cloud composition in certain areas.
Drones to combat drought in Dubai, an act that caused great controversy
The United Arab Emirates National Meteorological Center is an organization created with the aim of determining rainfall in very specific places. Thanks to this proposal, it is possible to enjoy rainfall on demand. Some of the images that first appeared on the audiovisual platform TikTok went viral due to the odd rain in Dubai. profile @yourcareerbestie It was he who published the main video of this story.
@yourcareerbestie very strong today #Dubai it’s been raining🫢😱🌧 #live abroad #random things #curiosity #for you #fyp ♬ real voice – your career companion
It is a technology that is mainly based on the use of drones. It is produced by the University of Reading, UK. Its main mode of operation lies in its autonomous flight and the ability to emit electric currents to them so that they are grouped together. In this way, it is possible to speed up natural process with the aim of creating precipitation. The use of this system makes it possible to avoid the use of chemical processes that have direct implications for the environment.
The drones used have a built-in weather station, which allows them to get information of all kinds related to the weather. So, thanks to this peculiar system, it is possible to enjoy a very interesting solution from a pollution point of view. They have a smaller size, so their flight becomes much more comfortable because it does not require a large runway. Thanks to the use of this strange technology, it is possible to determine when and, above all, where precipitation will occur.
If you launch the download in the cloud, it will quickly fill with water droplets. Our theory suggests that the filling of these droplets increases the likelihood that they will remain electrostatically together, favoring them as rain. Keri Nicoll, an expert from the Department of Meteorology at the University of Reading.
Despite the development of this new technology, the use of chemicals continues to be the main element used to produce rainwater artificially. This type of proposal, however, can cause great controversy, because, naturally, precipitation is very likely in other areas. Despite all these problems, it is reasonable to think that standardization is guaranteed.
