The Eleventh WMO Scientific Conference on Weather Modification will be held in Pune, India, from 3-7 November 2025. The conference will be hosted at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune. Abstract submissions are now open.
About the conference
The conference will consider weather modification with special emphasis on advances in the subject and prospects. The main themes of the conference are observational studies and field campaigns, laboratory facilities and studies relevant to the different weather modification topics; numerical modelling, model inter-comparisons, verification and assessment studies, new technological developments in seeding platforms, seeding material and methods of delivery, Data driven models, AI/ML, and statistical methods as applied to current and previous experiments and projects. Weather modification and the physical and socio-economic environment aspects include environmental issues, user requirements, cost-benefit studies, inadvertent weather modification, and climate change and geo engineering. The presentations are solicited for research, development, operational aspects, and new scientific results.
