在极端暴风雪的推动下,严重的雪崩正在急剧减少阿拉斯加山羊数量。 Severe avalanches, fueled by extreme snowstorms, are sharply reducing mountain goat populations in Alaska.

严重雪崩季节在大气河流等强烈暴风雪的驱动下,正在导致山羊数量大幅下降,特别是在陡峭的雪地地区。 Severe avalanche seasons, driven by intense snowstorms like atmospheric rivers, are causing significant declines in mountain goat populations, especially in steep, snowy regions. 雪崩可直接杀死山羊或破坏重要栖息地,破坏食物供应和提高死亡率。 Avalanches can kill goats directly or destroy vital habitat, disrupting food access and raising mortality. 虽然有些人口恢复,但一再发生的极端事件阻碍了恢复,威胁着长期稳定。 While some populations recover, repeated extreme events hinder recovery and threaten long-term stability. 阿拉斯加的研究人员,包括豪猪山附近的地区,正在研究这些影响,以便在气候驱动的极端天气条件下为养护工作提供信息。 Researchers in Alaska, including areas near Porcupine Mountain, are studying these impacts to inform conservation efforts amid climate-driven weather extremes.
