Abstract

In Serbia (Yugoslavia), hail suppression programs have been operated continuously for the past twenty-two years. Important details of how silver iodide stimulates freezing remain largely unknown. Assuming that seeding increases the concentration of the ice particles by a given factor, changes in the radar parameters of clouds can be expected. Two-minute radar parameter changes are considered. The differences between no seed and seed cases are analysed. During the seeding periods of cloud life a more rapid change in clouds parameters is clearly noted.
