Abstract
Since 1971 the Illinois State Water Survey (ISWS) has been evolving a design of a multi-year precipitation modification experiment for the Midwest. The planning became more focused in 1976 and the research more intensive in 1978 with the identification of the program as the Precipitation Augmentation for Crops Experiment (PACE). This program has been envisioned as consisting of four major phases. These deal with (1) pre-experiment studies to provide information for deciding upon and designing subsequent aspects of the program, (2) an exploratory field experiment, (3) a confirmatory modification experiment, and (4) final summation and information transfer.
