Abstract | Weather modification projects representing a wide range of effort and capability have been conducted in California and central Sierra Nevada since the late 1940’s. Data from many of these projects is collected and analyzed not to their effectiveness or to evaluate rainfall or streamflow; instead, to analyze (1) outline areas of increased runoff resulting from seeding, and magnitude, (2) to identify changes in runoff in terms of target areas, and (3) to investigate possible downwind or side effects and possible inter-project effects of major magnitude which might exist in the area of regional analysis. This work was accomplished through facilities of the Bureau of Reclamation’s Project Skywater. |
