Yacht
contest in aid of the cetaceans
(LONDON - England) -
A contest of motor boats can be useful to the dolphins and the
whales, in fact in occasion of the Volvo Ocean Race, a contest of
large boats that will be annoying for the oceans, the floating ones in
contest will come equipped of sophisticated equipment in a position to monitoring temperature and other parameters of the sea. The data will
come transmitted in real time to the satellite that will send back them to the
experts of NASA. The study of the health of the sea and its
characteristics is in fact of vital importance in order to understand
more on the habitat of the cetaceans. The organizers of the contest
have said themselves available to repeat the experiment for the next years; the studious have
took advantage for the
passage given from the boats to their equipment, completing analogous
studies with own means would have cost too much.
