赤道

Either of two times of the year when the sun crosses the plane of the earth's equator and day and night are of equal length.

太阳每年通过天赤道的两个时刻中的任何一个时刻，在此时各地的昼夜时间是等长的。

The great circle representing the apparent annual path of the sun; the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun; makes an angle of about 23 degrees with the equator.

在地球上看到的太阳运行的轨道；地球绕着太阳转的平面；与赤道平面大致成度角。

Peak snow, snow-capped mountains form the equator wonders.

峰顶终年积雪，形成赤道雪山奇观。

Corresponding to the long-lasting El Nio event, cyclonic anomalous circulation over the eastern North Pacific weakens slowly and anticyclonic anomalous circulation over the western North Pacific strengthens slowly at 850 hPa. Therefore the tropical Pacific westerly anomaly keeps long. The anomalous positive velocity potential over the western South Pacific at 200 hPa, which is related to the strong Australian winter monsoon, helps a long duration of El Nio. Corresponding to the short-lasting El Nio, the anomalous positive velocity potential over the western Pacific at 200 hPa moves eastward quickly and results in the vanishing of El Nio event.

还发现对于持续时间较长的El Nio事件，东北太平洋上850hPa异常气旋性环流减弱和西北太平洋上异常反气旋性环流增强较慢，因此赤道太平洋异常西风维持的时间也较长，而与澳大利亚冬季风加强相关联的南半球西太平洋的速度势正距平的维持，对El Nio的持续也起一定作用；对应持续时间较短的El Nio事件，西太平洋上200hPa速度势正距平的迅速东移，对El Nio的迅速消亡起重要作用。

The Martian rover Opportunity found lots of mineral salt deposits on the bottom of the Meridiani Planum, just south of the planet's equator.

火星漫游器&机遇&号在 Meridiani Planum 的底部发现了许多矿物盐沉积物，Meridiani Planum 刚好在火星赤道以南。

Measured from the geographic coordinate system, Japan is 36° north of the equator and 138° east of the Prime Meridian.

从地理坐标系统来衡量，日本是36赤道和138 °以东本初子午线°以北。

Measured from the geographic coordinate system, Japan is 36° north of the equator and 138° east of the Prime Meridian.

从地理测量坐标系，日本是36 °赤道以北，138 °以东的本初子午线。

In which whole length of the expanded equatorial line is assigned as horizontal-axis, and half of length of the expanded prime meridian is assigned as longitudinal-axis.

首先，我们提出了以中央经线和纬线的直接展开为基准的新的全球投影——纬平面投影，该投影以赤道线展开为横轴、以中央经线展开长度的一半为纵轴，纬线在纬平面上投影为一系列平行的直线段。

Know axis, two poles, prime meridian, and equator. Know the features of meridians and parallels, and their rule of location. Know the dividing method of low, middle and high latitude. Remember the east and west hemispheres and south and north hemispheres.

知道地轴、两极、本初子午线和赤道，知道经线和纬线的特征及经度和纬度的分布规律，知道低纬度、中纬度、高纬度的划分方法，记住东西两半球和南北两半球的划分方法。

With eastern Pacific SST as the criterion, SST is low prior to 1976, suggestive of a robust Walker circulation and v.v. for the subsequent years.

根据El Nino发生的海区位置ENSO可划分为两种类型：赤道东太平洋增暖型和中太平洋增暖型。

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.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
