Abstract

A method of inducing rainfall in an arid area close to the sea comprises the building of a floating barrage impervious to sea-water extending outwardly from the coast, with the aim of deflecting away from the coast currents of cold water flowing along it, and thereby producing, adjacent to the coast, an area of warmer water which will result in increased evaporation and increased precipitation over the adjacent land. The barrier may consist of a series of cylindrical hollow floats or a continuous bouyant inflatable hose from which hang sheets of rubber or canvas the lower edges of which are weighted, the hose or the floats being connected at spaced intervals to buoys, which may be lighted for nagitation purposes, and which are anchored by cables to blocks on the sea-bed. The sheets may be of about 100 ft. in p depth and the barrage may be of several miles in length.
