地球的力量 第3集 冰川(27)格陵蘭冰原

I think it's stuck.-I think it's stuck.

我想是卡住了

The camera seems to have reached a bend in themoulin

攝像機(jī)好像到了冰川鍋穴的一個彎道

and it's not moving.

結(jié)果被卡住了

It's hit a ledge.

撞上暗礁、了

We have to pull it back.

我們必須把它拉回來

It could be just a kink in the moulin

這大概是冰川鍋穴的一個頸部

or it could be the water never reaches the bedrock.

也可能是因為水流沒有到達(dá)巖底

For the moment, it will have to remain a mystery.

想解開秘密只能再等等了

Konnie and his team will have to redesign the camera

科尼和他的團(tuán)隊必須重新設(shè)計攝像機(jī)

and return next summer.

等明年夏天再回來

But wherever this water ends up, it's clear that more surface ice is melting.

可是不管水流最終流到何處，很明顯，表面冰層正在不停的融化

Scientists have mapped the area of the Greenland ice sheet

科學(xué)家們畫出了格陵蘭冰原的地圖

that experiences surface melting in summer.

冰原表面在夏天不停融化

As recently as the 1990s, it was a relatively small area

到1992年，冰原的輪廓

around the edges of the ice sheet.

已經(jīng)縮小了很多

But by2005, the melt zone had massively expanded.

到2005年，融化的區(qū)域大幅度的增加
