生物发光浮游生物正在新西兰Pāpāmoa海滩照明, Bioluminescent plankton are lighting up Pāpāmoa Beach, New Zealand, drawing crowds with glowing waves.

一个稀有的生物发光展已经点燃了新西兰Pāpāmamoa海滩, 吸引群众观看由于微小浮游生物大量涌现而发光的蓝色波浪。 A rare bioluminescent display has lit up Pāpāmoa Beach in New Zealand, drawing crowds to see waves glow blue due to a bloom of microscopic plankton. 这种现象在泰勒保留地和海洋土地附近可见,与更温暖的水域、更长的天数和富营养物从强风中涌出有关。 The phenomenon, visible at Taylor’s Reserve and near Marine Land, is linked to warmer waters, longer days, and nutrient-rich upwelling from strong winds. 科学家说,此类事件可能因气候变化而增加,尽管浮游生物一般无害。 Scientists say such events may be increasing due to climate change, though the plankton are generally harmless. 光芒,在平静,清澈的夜晚, 能够持续数天或数周。 The glow, best seen on calm, clear nights, could last days or weeks. 在斯特拉斯莫尔湾也可以看到类似的展示。 Similar displays have been seen at Strathmore Bay. 当局建议不要在大浪期间进入水中,并敦促来访者保持安全。 Authorities advise against entering the water during high swells and urge visitors to stay safe.
