DESCRIPTION:Emily Yeh of the University of Colorado Boulder will present th
 is year's Donald W. Meinig Lecture\, “Global Geographies of Weather Modifi
 cation in an Era of Climate Change."As climate change impacts intensify\, 
 interest in the practice of cloud seeding to induce precipitation and othe
 rwise modify the weather is on the rise around the world. Geography offers
  powerful analytical tools for understanding the practice of cloud seeding
  and the controversies it has created — including thinking geographically 
 about the hydrosocial cycle\, culture-nature binaries\, volumetric geopoli
 tics\, and the need to take indigenous world-making practices seriously. T
 he talk compares weather modification in the United States\, the United Ar
 ab Emirates\, and China\, showing that their practices and rationales are 
 shaped quite differently by political economic\, institutional and socio-c
 ultural contexts.The Professor Donald W. Meinig Undergraduate Lecture hono
 rs the pivotal geographical work of Maxwell Professor Emeritus Donald W. M
 einig\, a member of the Syracuse University Geography Department from 1959
  until his retirement in 2005.
