研究警告本努小行星如果在2182年撞击地球,可能造成全球“影响冬季”。
Study warns Bennu asteroid could cause global "impact winter" if it hits Earth in 2182.
科学进步的一项新研究以2182年与地球发生潜在小行星本努碰撞的灾难性后果为模型,概率为0.037%。
A new study in Science Advances models the catastrophic effects of a potential asteroid Bennu collision with Earth in 2182, a scenario with a 0.037% chance.
本努可能引发全球“影响冬季”, 降雨量减少15%, 气温降低4摄氏度, 臭氧层耗减32%, 严重扰乱食物生产和生态系统。
Bennu could trigger a global "impact winter," reducing rainfall by 15%, lowering temperatures by up to 4 degrees Celsius, and depleting the ozone layer by 32%, severely disrupting food production and ecosystems.
尽管概率低,但研究强调,有必要监测危险小行星。
Despite the low probability, the research underscores the need for monitoring hazardous asteroids.
