Mutant Seaweed In Qingdao, Become Obstruction In August
Sailing, News June 27th, 2008
The mutant seaweed which has formed along the coastlines of Qingdao, the sailing venue of the Beijing Olympics, may become obstacles to the competition’s windsurfers if it is not cleared by August. Instead of fishing, the fishermen of Eastern China fish on the seaweed now, before we have Seaweed Sailing.
The seaweed is another blow to the Chinese organisers, who boasted recently of the technological advances they were introducing to the sailing venue to combat the meteorological challenges at Qingdao. These include China’s first vehicle-borne 鈥渄oppler鈥� radar, used in police speed guns, which will provide information on wind speed and the direction of the tides.
I honestly think by August, everything will be as clear as the water.
