Chapter 232 Rainfall in Another Location
"Get out of here!"
Wu Changjiang couldn't resist giving Qin Ze a whack on the back of the neck.
"The whole world is watching you now."
"You'd better do a good job with this research."
Peak 31 flew towards the Pacific Ocean at a speed of several tens of Mach.
Therefore, saying anything else is pointless.
We can only watch Qin Ze do it.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ze simply smiled faintly: "Don't worry, Commander. The Peak 31 missile lives up to its name; it represents the pinnacle of our efforts in safeguarding people's livelihoods."
"I hope that's not just a joke."
Qin Ze: "Of course not."
Done.
He looked at Huang Changyuan beside him: "Director Huang, is this year a typical El Niño year?"
Huang Changyuan paused for half a second, then nodded and said, "Yes."
"Then can you tell everyone about the effects of El Niño?"
Huang Changyuan: "This is more complicated. It's mainly due to extreme weather caused by rising sea temperatures."
"Droughts are more likely to occur in areas with frequent rainfall, while floods are more likely to occur in areas that are normally dry."
"Such abnormal situations are more likely to cause disasters."
"We estimate that this year's El Niño phenomenon will be the strongest in previous years."
Wu Changjiang asked, puzzled, "But what does this have to do with Peak 31?"
"It's related."
Qin Ze explained earnestly.
"This time, the Pinnacle 31 is equipped with rain bombs."
"It would be a real shame to launch such a large-scale rain-drop bomb in the air."
"Therefore, I am prepared to use exercises as a form of warfare, combining the demonstration of rain-prevention and disaster mitigation with the demonstration of rain-prevention missiles."
Wu Changjiang: "Are you planning to create a rainstorm?"
"Yes."
After nodding, Qin Ze looked at Huang Changyuan again.
"Director Huang, as far as I know, it's due to the influence of El Niño."
"Has it been a long time since we've had any rain in the mid-latitude subtropical regions, especially in East Asia?"
Huang Changyuan immediately quoted his professional knowledge: "That's right. Under normal circumstances, the mid-latitudes are controlled by the westerly wind belt and the subtropical high, and there is often cloudy and rainy weather in summer."
"However, this year, due to excessively high sea surface temperatures, the westerly winds will weaken, and the subtropical high will exert greater control over the mid-latitude regions."
"This leads to scarce rainfall in some mid-latitude countries."
"The most prominent examples are island nations and the Korean Peninsula."
"According to our data, the island nation has gone 28 consecutive days without rain."
"The rainfall throughout the summer was as low as 14%."
"This is the second worst drought in the history of this island nation, as far as I can remember."
Qin Ze shrugged: "Listen to this, Commander, the people of the island nation are suffering terribly."
"Fortunately, we are currently testing rain bombs."
"Rather than just firing warheads randomly."
"It would be better to save the people of the island nation from their suffering."
? ? ? ?
Wu Changjiang squinted, his mind filled with questions.
Talking about this?
Why save the people of an island nation?
Why don't I believe it?
Yes.
If you use rain bombs to create some rain along the way, it's a good thing.
But is it possible for you to bring benefits to the people of an island nation?
"Qin Ze? Are you sure you're not being sarcastic?"
Qin Ze: "Of course I'm not being sarcastic. Anyway, the direction our rain-reducing bombs are flying is also the location of Xiao Rizi."
Wu Changjiang objected: "That's not right. The warhead's flight path has actually already passed over our homeland. It should be in the Pacific Ocean by now."
Although Wu Changjiang cannot see the backend operations operated by Zhou Jiahao.
But he can probably figure it out.
After taking off, Peak 31 flew at a speed of Mach 20 or 30, and in the short time it had been talking, it had already left the homeland of Little Life.
Even if a rain-making bomb is meant to bring rain, it only works if it's placed precisely overhead on ordinary days.
But Qin Ze immediately waved his hand when he heard the rebuttal.
"Commander, you're confused. Rain needs to actually fall."
Wu Changjiang: "Isn't your rain-making bomb meant to bring rain?"
"No, no, no, Commander, you still haven't grasped the basic logic."
Qin Ze explained in detail.
"Artificial rainmaking does not involve sending rainwater up into the sky using warheads."
"Instead, the warhead carries a rainmaking medium, such as silver iodide, to catalyze rainfall."
"Essentially, this technology still requires the sky to operate."
"There must be clouds in the sky."
"But the island nation is currently under the influence of the subtropical high, with clear skies and no clouds, so it does not have the conditions for rainfall."
Wu Changjiang was a little confused: "Then why did you say you would bring rain to them?"
Qin Ze explained.
"We are still using the approach of using a rain-catalyzing medium to induce rainfall."
"But we use a different medium, and the effect is better."
"Therefore, when carrying out the mission, we must first find a rain cloud."
As they were talking.
Qin Ze waved his hand behind him.
Bai Huiyan had a sudden inspiration and immediately took out a tablet computer.
"Look, this is the current weather cloud map."
"The data interface comes from the National Meteorological Administration, so it's quite accurate."
"Our warheads must first reach the location of the rain clouds."
Everyone looked at the weather map.
The Pacific Ocean has a total area of 1.8134 million km², accounting for one-third of the Earth's surface and nearly half of the ocean's area.
Therefore, all kinds of weather systems can be found in this vast sea area.
There are cloud maps in all sorts of colors: yellow, green, and red.
But Huang Changyuan, a meteorological expert, became more and more confused the more he looked at it.
"No, Professor Qin, I don't understand."
"You said you would bring rain to our little days."
"But your missiles and rain clouds are not located above the map of Xiao Rizi."
Let alone getting close.
Huang Changyuan made a visual assessment.
The nearest moisture-laden weather system to the island nation is nearly 800 kilometers away.
At this distance, even with rainmaking efforts, the villagers can't get a single drop of water.
Qin Ze: "Director Huang, what's wrong with you? Have you forgotten that this is the latest technology?"
"No matter how new your technology is, you can't make rain fall in a different location, can you?"
Qin Ze: "Rainfall in a different location? Director Huang, that's a very apt description. We are exactly the kind of people who experience rainfall in a different location."
"????"
Huang Changyuan stared at Qin Ze in disbelief.
He's a veteran meteorologist, having spent his entire life working on the front lines of meteorology.
After working in this field for so many years, he had never heard of the concept of rainfall in other locations.
"No, Professor Qin, I just said it offhand."
"But what you said is very vivid."
Qin Ze explained.
"This is rainfall occurring in a different location."
"The principle is actually very simple: it involves releasing a warhead into the mid-troposphere to create a westerly trough."
"To give an example."
"There are many cumulonimbus clouds at sea, but they can't reach the land."
"This is due to the limitations of various weather systems; there is a barrier between the subtropical high and the westerly wind belt."
"At this point, we need to build a road to guide the clouds to the land."
"And you can think of Peak 11 as the person who builds the road."
! ! ! !
Upon hearing this, Huang Changyuan's pupils suddenly dilated.
