Drifting clouds can refer to two distinct concepts: a mass of clouds moving, or a method of distributing insecticide.
Drifting Clouds: Two Interpretations
The term "drifting clouds" can be interpreted in two different ways, based on context.
1. A Mass of Moving Clouds
- This is the most literal and common understanding. It describes a mass of drifting clouds, simply clouds that are moving across the sky. Reference [1] explicitly defines it this way.
2. Insecticide Distribution
- This refers to a specific method of distributing powdered insecticide from an airplane. The insecticide is released in such a way that it drifts slowly like a cloud over the targeted area. This is described in reference [2].
