Led by the National Centre of Meteorology, the programme selected three scientists from the US, Germany, and Australia from 140 global proposals.
The research will focus on environmentally friendly rain enhancement using artificial intelligence, advanced cloud-seeding materials, and land-based methods.
With limited natural rainfall and heavy reliance on desalinated water, the UAE aims to strengthen water security, support agriculture, and improve long-term water resources through scientific innovation.
