Record levels of microplastics discovered on the ocean seabed 研究人员发现海底微塑料含量达有史以来最高值 本集内容 Record levels of microplastics discovered on the ocean seabed 研究人员发现海底微塑料含量达有史以来最高值 学习要点 有关 “plastic pollution(塑料污染)” 的词汇 边看边答 How many plastic particles per square metre have been discovered in the world’s oceans? We found in this area the highest accumulations ever reported in the global oceans and there are 1.9 million particles, pieces, small pieces per square metre. 伊恩·凯恩博士 曼彻斯特大学 “我们在一定程度上填补了对下落不明的 99%的塑料认识上的空白。海底有脆弱的生态系统,它们依赖于被洋流冲走的营养物质和氧气。洋流正在把微塑料输送到这些脆弱生态系统存在的地方。” Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey, in another study published this week, revealed that plastic pollution was reaching the shores of some of the most remote islands. 近年来,我们终于开始看到塑料垃圾对海洋环境的影响。这项研究已开始揭示那些肉眼看不见的、长期的后果。 词汇 accumulations 堆积物 flushed 被冲走 breaks down 分解 fragments 碎片,碎块 fragile 脆弱的,易受影响的 问题答案 Scientists have found 1.9 million plastic particles per square metre.
