Published in Weather & Agriculture 1 min read

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].
