[quote=MAY001,235252]A research station that monitors the lake said a few days ago that the algae had been "exploding" for a month. "The foul water quality is seriously affecting urban residents' work and life," said the report, posted on the website of the Chinese Academy of Sciences station (www.taihu.ac.cn). It blamed unusually warm water and pollution flowing into the lake. "In coming months, as the water temperature of Taihu Lake continues to rise, if the water level remains where it is now, the scale of the algae bloom will expand and could last four to five months," it said. Wuxi would try to artificially induce rain to flush the lake, and the provincial government had agreed to divert more water from the Yangtze River, Xinhua said.[/quote]
