Chinese to English Other Environment & Ecology
现在防汛调度演习已经开始啦,它在山西,陕西,河南,山东四省的这个防汛指挥部门已经进入到戒备状态.按照这个演习的计划呢,水温部门呢正在准备天气和降雨情况,这次演习是模拟这个强降雨啊
Is it 'department responsible for water temperature"? or is there an official name for this department? Thanks.

hydrological departments

I would assume it is a typo for "水文部门" = "hydrological departments" (as used in this article: http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200305/20/eng20030520_1169... )

Google came up with nothing for "水温部门" aside from the urls for this proz question.
Peer comment(s):

agree Michael Lai : Department of Hydrology is probably the only thing I can think of. Although this is usally tied up with departments or ministry of Water Resources.
