章节摘录

　　The third problem， Miao said， is that logistical supplies at the localeare very limited， adding that rescue teams have to rely on themselvesto survive.　　Temperatures in Yushu vary from around 10C in the day to minus5 ~C at night.　　The weather makes rescue work difficult， and high altitude and thecold also pose dangers to the victims.　　Cai Zhengdong， director of the Shanghai Trauma First Aid Center，said that in cold weather with less oxygen， the blood vessels of injuredpeople may constrict， causing the injured body part to die. In addition，patients' kidneys will start failing， he added.　　He said the dusty wind in Yushu also impedes the recovery of surgi-cal patients.　　Cai， who had joined the relief work in Sichuan province after the 8.0-magnitude quake in 2008， stressed that the first 72 hours after the quakeare "exceedingly important" to rescuing trapped people.　　"The situation in Yushu is quite different from that in Wenchuan，Sichuan. Wounded people are very likely to stop breathing in a cold，low-oxygen environment，" he said.　　Zheng Guoguang， director of China Meteorological Administration，required relevant local departments to give careful and practical weatherforecasts in the quake-hit areas， including fire warnings in the denselyconstructed tent areas.　　Zhang Guosheng， deputy director of Qinghai Meteorological Bureau，said weather departments are paying close attention to changes in theweather， and weather updates would be reported to disaster relief head-quarters hourly.　　Meanwhile， experts have been disp' tched to analyze recent climate-related materials.　 Zhang said a work team was rushing to repair equipment in Yushuto ensure a smooth weather forecast service.
