Headline

(max. 9 words)

Scientists finds a way for controlling the weather

Description

(approx. 150 words)
Please describe the Wild Card (approx. 150 words)
Some scientists contend that influencing the weather may be possible if we can sufficiently improve our current ability to observe, predict, and make changes to the atmosphere. There has been some theoretical research on the weather control, with potential practical results in the future.

Keywords

weather control

Type of event

Human planned (e.g. terrorist attack or funded scientific breakthrough)

Type of emergence

please select (if any) describe related trend or situation
A new development/situation
(e.g. a Romani state is established in central Europe; A message from an alien civilisation existing on a distant planet is received and understood, etc.

Early indicators

(including weak signals)

Significant improvements in the technology must be implemented, including significant advances in data assimilation (i.e. collecting world-wide observations and processing the data); even higher resolution numerical models that accurately portray the physics of the atmosphere; more complete and accurate satellite observations; and computer power much beyond our current technology, perhaps based on breakthroughs in nanotechnology or quantum devices. Then there must be coordination among all the systems. Within the next 20 years these enablers may be available.

Latent phase

Obstacles for early indentification
