ENGR 3342: PROBABILITY STATISTICS AND RANDOM PROCESS
1. (Txt Bk 6.67) Cloud seeding, a process in which chemicals such as silver iodide and
frozen carbon dioxide are introduced by aircraft into clouds to promote rainfall was
widely used in the 20th century. Recent research has questioned its effectiveness
[Journal of Atmospheric Research (2010, Vol. 97 (2), pp. 513– 525)]. An experiment was
performed by randomly assigning 52 clouds to be seeded or not. The amount of rain
generated was then measured in acre-feet. Here are the data for the unseeded and seeded
clouds:
