印度在德里附近测试云苗以对抗冬季烟雾, 目的是触发雨水并减少致命空气污染。
India tested cloud seeding near Delhi to fight winter smog, aiming to trigger rain and reduce deadly air pollution.
印度在德里进行了首次云层播种试验,以对抗严寒的冬季烟雾,利用飞机将化学品散布到云中,希望能够引来降雨和减少有害空气污染。
India conducted its first cloud seeding trial over Delhi to combat severe winter smog, using an aircraft to disperse chemicals into clouds in hopes of inducing rainfall and reducing hazardous air pollution.
此次测试旨在评估科技效果, 是因为德里面临持续高水平的PM2.5, 经常超过卫生组织准则十倍。
The test, aimed at evaluating the technology’s effectiveness, comes as Delhi faces persistent high levels of PM2.5, often exceeding WHO guidelines by over tenfold.
虽然其他国家将云种用于减轻干旱和野火,但其大幅提高城市空气质量的能力仍然不确定,专家们强调,它并不处理车辆、工业或作物燃烧等污染源。
While cloud seeding has been used in other countries for drought and wildfire mitigation, its ability to significantly improve urban air quality remains uncertain, with experts stressing it does not address pollution sources like vehicles, industry, or crop burning.
官员们正在评估该方法的潜力,但科学家们告诫说,这不是一个长期的解决办法,必须配以更强有力的监管和排放控制。
Officials are assessing the method’s potential, but scientists caution it is not a long-term solution and must be paired with stronger regulations and emissions controls.
