Precipitation Events over Tasmania and their Response to Weather Modification

塔斯马尼亚水电公司正在进行的云播撒工作将通过实地工作和数值模拟相结合的方式进行调查。新的仪器和先进的数值模式将使这项研究能够对塔斯马尼亚上空的降水事件及其对云播撒的反应有一个新的理解。这项研究还将探讨本底气溶胶/污染水平与降水之间的相互作用。鉴于塔斯马尼亚上空空气的相对纯净性质，这项研究将引起国际关注。这项研究也将直接引起塔斯马尼亚水电公司的兴趣，因为对降水事件的洞察将使我们能够优化他们的播云作业。

The ongoing cloud-seeding work undertaken by Hydro Tasmania will be investigated through a combination of fieldwork and numerical simulations. New instrumentation and advanced numerical models will allow this research to provide a new understanding of the precipitation events over Tasmania and their response to cloud seeding. This research will also explore the interaction between the background aerosol/pollution level and the precipitation. Given the relatively pure nature of the air over Tasmania, this research will be of international interest. This research will also be of direct interest to Hydro Tasmania as insight gained into the precipitation events will allow us to optimise their cloud-seeding operation.
