I thought this was going to describe cloud seeding, artificially stimulating cloud formation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_seeding https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_seeding It's been used in Dubai, the middle of the desert, to create fake rain (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_seeding#cite_ref-8 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_seeding#cite_ref-8). It's been used in some US states (https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/eight-states-are-seeding-clouds-to-overcome-megadrought/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/eight-states-are-...). Though it's effectiveness is debated and it cannot guarantee precipitation. It also has environmental impacts, possibly decreasing precipitation in other areas as well as causing health issues (it basically involves spreading salt or dry ice into the air).
