Fog-water collection with Large Fog Collectors is a proven method of water harvesting system in arid and semi-arid coastal areas but is there any practical test being made to precipitate fog artificially with fog-seeding at a larger scale as a potential source of water?
Le problème réside à la'pauvreté de la population de ces zones où la surélévation de l'eau salée pour refroidir le vapeur d'eau et lemmagaziner et produire de l'énergie est le moyen le moins coûteux
Hello Mussie, Merv Byron in Alberta has developped a technology to precipitate clouds: http://www.innovationsinagriculture.com/Speaker?id=59 https://www.linkedin.com/pub/merv-byron/23/462/8b0 Best regards, Laurent H. Selles
Yes, Practical studies have been done int the earstwhile Andhra Pradesh state (Combined state of AP). you can contact Professor Venkateshwar rao of JNTU, Hyderabad. visit JNTU Hyderabad website, Institute of water management studies

Yes, the great work was made by FogQuest group and MIT. However there is more global solution - AirHES (or Cloud Power) as a new huge source of renewable energy and fresh water worldwide. Look at this PDF for references: http://barixa.net/Mesh_airhes_en.pdf
in rural Kenya this is being spearheaded by one of the water expert in the country Prof Bancy Mati. this was started in 2013. view the links below for more information http://www.voanews.com/content/fog-collector-transforming-maasai-water-harvesting-in-kenya/1959688.html a publication on her work Mati, B.

Mussie, I'm not entirely sure to be honest. Does anyone else have any input on this? I think it would be a fantastic speaking opportunity at The Flood Expo though...
