The energy required to make artificial snow is about 0.6–0.7 kW h/m 3 for lances and 1–2 kW h/m 3 for fan guns. The density of artificial snow is between 400 and 500 kg/m 3 and the water consumption for producing snow is roughly equal to that number. [8] Snowmaking begins with a water supply such as a river or reservoir.
A terrarium (pl. terraria or terrariums) is a glass container containing soil and plants in an environment different from the surroundings. It is usually a sealable container that can be opened for maintenance or to access the plants inside; however, terraria can also be open to the atmosphere.

Cloud seeding is also referred to as man made precipitation and artificial rain making. [61] The United Arab Emirates is one of the first countries in the Persian Gulf region to use cloud seeding technology. UAE scientists use cloud seeding technology to supplement the country's water insecurity, which stems from the extremely hot climate. [62]
