北极的

Our data will help scientists better understand how fast the volume of Arctic ice is decreasing and how soon we might see a nearly ice-free Arctic in the summer.

我们的数据能够帮助科学家们更好的了解北极冰层的体积减少的如何快和或许我们多快在夏季就能看到一个几乎无冰的北冰洋。

The size of the North Polar Ice Cap in the month of September is only half the size it was a mere 50 years ago.

北极冰盖在9月份的大小，只相当于50年前的一半。1870年起，人们开始测量海平面上升的速度，现在的速度是那时的5倍。

Your Honor, the Artic polar icecap is declining at the rate of nine percent per decade. We're talking about a rising sea level that could wipe out huge pieces of the world's land mass. More importantly, us! Massachusetts, California, our coast lines.

法官阁下，北极冰川面积正以每10年9%的速度递减，我们正在谈论的是海平面逐年升高，正在逐步的侵蚀地球的陆地，而且与我们密切相关，麻省，加州，我们的海岸线，这一点都不好笑。

Other parts of the Arctic also experienced higher-than-normal temperatures, which indicate that the wider polar region may have experienced its hottest summer on record, according to Walt Meir of the US National Snow and Ice Data Centre in Colorado.

其他部分的北极地区，也经历了高于正常水平的气温，这表明更广泛的极地区域可能经历了夏季最热的纪录，根据沃尔特梅尔的美国国家冰雪数据中心在科罗拉多州。

The shaft of the ceremonial mace is the whorled tusk of a narwhal, a small Arctic whale. The door handles are of walrus tusk.

仪式权杖的螺纹杆是用一种小型的北极独角鲸的牙齿制成的，而门柄也是用海象的牙齿制成。

Abramovich-funded subsidies have restored the herd to 200,000 and given the Chukchi wages and hunting weapons. Reindeer herders Aleksei Omrynkau, 57, and his wife Katy, 56, a Chukchi couple, have spent their lives in the sub-Arctic tundra and live in a teepee, or yaranga, made from reindeer skins.

而阿布补贴使得鹿群的数量回升到20万只，同时发给楚科其人工资和打猎用具。57岁的牧人Aleksei Omrynkau和妻子56岁的Katy是一对楚科其族夫妇，在亚北极区的苔原带上度过了一生，他们住在圆锥形帐篷或者用驯鹿皮制成的yaranga里。

A workaholic who was haunted by memories of his impoverished childhood, when he worked in a blacking factory, Dickens was never the most emotionally stable of men at the best of times, never mind at the worst. In 1857 his friend Wilkie Collins wrote a play about a failed Arctic expedition.

狄更斯早年贫困，曾在鞋油厂做工，这段挥之不去的记忆使他工作十分卖力，而情场中的狄更斯却并不沉稳，顺风顺水的时候尚且如是，时乖命蹇就更是如此了。1857年，他的朋友威尔基克林斯写了个剧本，讲述一次失败的北极探险。

I investigate the space of Gulou and Beijige square, classific to the collecting first-hand information, and put forward my own views.

对鼓楼广场及北极阁广场的空间进行实地调研，对收集的一手资料进行分类整理，从物质要素和精神要素两方面入手，分析两个广场的空间构成方式、高差变化、尺度、使用、文化等等，找出它们空间设计的问题，并提出自己的改造意见。

In this it may be wrong, but there is no doubt that fossil fuel, the very agent that is destroying the Arctic, will become far more available as a result of the destruction it wreaks.

在这点上，俄罗斯也许是错误的，但是毫无疑问的是，化石燃料是破坏北极区的真正动因，将更可能成为被俄罗斯所引起的破坏的结果。

Nor could I pass unnoticed the suggestion of the bleak shores of Lapland, Siberia, Spitzbergen, Nova Zembla, Iceland, Greenland, with 'the vast sweep of the Arctic Zone, and those forlorn regions of dreary space — that reservoir of frost and snow, where firm fields of ice, the accumulation of centuries of winters, glazed in Alpine heights above heights, surround the pole, and concentre the multiplied rigours of extreme cold '.

还有些地方我也不能看都不看，一翻而过，那就是书中提到的拉普兰、西伯利亚、斯匹次卑尔根群岛、新地岛、冰岛和格陵兰荒凉的海岸。广袤无垠的北极地带和那些阴凄凄的不毛之地，宛若冰雪的储存库。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.
