研究人员告诫深海采矿业可能不可逆转地损害生态系统,恢复需要数千年。 Researchers caution deep-sea mining may irreversibly damage ecosystems, with restoration taking millennia.

研究人员警告说,深海采矿后恢复海床可能不可行,或可能需要数千年。 Researchers warn that restoring the sea floor after deep-sea mining may not be feasible or could take thousands of years. 深海富含宝贵的矿物,是采矿公司的目标,但恢复受损生态系统的努力只显示短期恢复。 The deep sea, rich in valuable minerals, is a target for mining companies, but attempts to restore damaged ecosystems have shown only short-term recovery. 在国际海底管理局会议上介绍的这些调查结果表明,采矿活动可能永久损害独特的深海生态系统。 These findings, presented at the International Seabed Authority meeting, suggest that mining could permanently harm unique deep-sea ecosystems.
