"Venus transit may cause serious flooding along China's Yellow River: report
The recent spectacular transit of Venus across the face of the Sun may lead
to disastrous flooding along China's Yellow River, a leading scientist has
warned the local media.
He compared historical records reaching 2,187 years back and found a clear
correlation between Venus transits and serious floods along the river's
middle and lower reaches, according to the agency.
The reason could be that Venus blocks part of the Sun's radiation that
should have been transmitted to Earth, said Mr Guo, a researcher at the
Special Committee on Natural Calamities Forecasting under the China
Geophysics Society.
This causes climatic disturbances across the globe, he argued.
Torrential rains and flooding were responsible for nearly 2,000 deaths in
China in the first nine months of last year."
