南极洲的“末日冰川”思韦茨冰川正在以惊人的速度融化,这引发了科学家对其对全球海平面的潜在影响的担忧。 Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier," Thwaites, is melting at an alarming rate, raising concerns among scientists about its potential impact on global sea levels. 最近的研究表明,冰川的融化速度比之前预期的要快,主要原因是暖洋流。 Recent studies indicate the glacier is losing ice faster than previously anticipated, primarily due to warm ocean currents. 海水正在将冰川推向数英里以下,使冰川更容易融化,并增加了海平面大幅上升的可能性,有可能淹没世界各地的沿海地区。 Ocean water is pushing miles beneath the glacier, making it more vulnerable to melting and increasing the possibility of significant sea level rise, potentially flooding coastal regions worldwide.
