peat is made up of sphagnum and other mosses 翻譯公司 which hold a large amount of water and contain compounds that inhibit decomposition. the peat slowly builds up over centuries because the annual growth exceeds the decay.

克麗斯汀.郝斯曼抓起一個採樣用螺旋鑽 翻譯尾端,鑽進一個濕潤、含有纖維且部份腐臭 翻譯圓柱形泥炭樣本中 翻譯社她的兩位同事才方才用這類鋼管,鑽探泥炭池沼中一座長滿苔蘚的小丘 翻譯社

這個世界已有大量二氧化碳從印尼的泥炭地釋出。客歲泥炭地為了轉作農業用處被抽乾水份,又因與聖嬰現象相關的高溫氣候變得更乾燥,起火燃燒了數月,冒出的煙霧從太空都能看到,且致使很多人的健康問題。

“there’s literally tons of carbon here,” she said, looking around the bog, which covers several acres off a muddy oil-company road amid the vast flatness of northern alberta.

there are an estimated 1.6 million square miles of peatlands, or about 3 percent of the earth’s land surface 翻譯公司 mostly in northern latitudes in canada, alaska, europe and russia.

在「大自然若何調理大氣中二氧化碳」的相幹接頭中,叢林以接收和貯存二氧化碳的能力獲得最多留意,不外,泥炭地也飾演主要腳色。

泥炭(peat)由石楠、苔蘚、蕨類等植物殘骸經細菌腐蝕分解而成,又稱為草炭或泥煤,是煤化程度最低 翻譯煤。蘇格蘭盛產泥炭,泥炭不但作為日常生活中 翻譯燃料,也用來製造蘇格蘭威士忌。

以「用泥炭烘乾的大麥」製作威士忌,會產生獨特的煙燻味 翻譯社幾近所有 翻譯蘇格蘭威士忌都含有泥炭成分,只是大多數泥炭度(peatiness)不高,常人喝不出來 翻譯社

地球上約有160萬平方哩泥炭地,占地表陸地面積3%,大多位於北半球加拿大、美國阿拉斯加州、歐洲和俄國。

“it’s carbon that has accumulated over several thousands of years,” said mike waddington, a mcmaster professor who has been researching peat in alberta and elsewhere for more than two decades. “if it were to be released, the global co2 concentration would be much higher.”

literally是「照字面地」,translate literally就是「照字面直譯」,本文的literally為非正式用法「確切地、不誇張地」,例如:this orangutan is literally using a carrot and stick to teach its baby. (這隻猩猩真的是用胡蘿蔔和棍棒教導自己的小孩。)

(文/李京倫)

只有為數甚少的泥炭被操縱:看成燃料燃燒,為後院花園增添養分,或為蘇格蘭威士忌增添泥炭煙燻味。絕大多半的泥炭則留在原地,並且由於泥炭積累二氧化碳這麼長時候,泥炭 翻譯二氧化碳含量比全球樹木和植物的含量還多,幾近跟大氣中的含量相當。

in discussions of how nature regulates carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, forests receive most of the attention for their ability to absorb and store carbon. but peatlands play an important role 翻譯公司 too.

a keeper of carbon is at risk

like forests, peatlands are threatened by climate change. warming temperatures can dry out bogs, making them more susceptible to fires 翻譯公司 and to deeper 翻譯公司 more intense burning. a peat fire 翻譯公司 which can smolder like a cigarette for months 翻譯公司 can release a lot of carbon.

麥克馬斯特大學傳授沃丁頓在亞伯達和其他處所研究泥炭跨越20年,他說:「這些二氧化碳已積累了好幾千年,一旦釋出,全球二氧化碳濃度就會高上很多。」

她一邊說「這裡真的有好幾噸二氧化碳」,一邊環視池沼。池沼廣達幾英畝,位在加拿大亞伯達省北部這片廣袤平原中一條泥濘的石油公司道路四周。

teem是指雨「傾瀉」,teem with則是「充滿很多」(人或動物),例如:the camps teem with about 135,000 refugees.(難民營內擠了大概13萬5000個難民。)

kristyn housman grabbed the end of a sampling auger 翻譯公司 a steel tube that two colleagues had just drilled into a moss-covered hummock in a peat bog 翻譯公司 and poked through a damp, fibrous plug of partly decomposed peat.

plug凡是是插頭或塞子,本文中 翻譯plug容易曲解為園藝術語peat plug「泥炭育苗塊」,但育苗塊不會有幾百年歷史,所以在本文中應解作「從較大 翻譯物品切下的圓柱或圓錐狀小塊,平日作為樣本」。

peat has been building up for centuries in this bog, where the spongy moss is interspersed with black spruces and, on a late spring morning, the air is teeming with mosquitoes. the sample 翻譯公司 taken from 3 feet down, is at least several hundred years old, said housman, a graduate researcher at mcmaster university in hamilton, ontario.

泥炭地跟叢林一樣受天氣變遷要挾。氣溫升高讓沼澤乾涸,更容易受火警和深層、強烈悶燒影響。泥炭地火災能像香菸一樣悶燒數月,釋出大量二氧化碳。

a relatively small amount of peat is mined to burn as fuel 翻譯公司 to improve backyard gardens or to add smokiness to scotch. but most of it stays where it is, and because it accumulates carbon over such a long time, it contains more carbon than is in all the world’s trees and plants, and nearly as much as the atmosphere does.

the world has already had vast releases of carbon from peat 翻譯公司 in indonesia. last year, bogs that had been drained for agriculture, and were drier because of el nino-related warmth, burned for months, creating a haze visible from space and causing widespread health problems.

泥炭由泥炭蘚與其他苔蘚組成,這些苔蘚含有大量水份和按捺分化 翻譯複合物。泥炭經由幾個世紀慢慢堆集擴大,因為每年成長的速度超過分解的速度。

泥炭已在這片池沼中積累幾世紀,這裡鬆軟的苔蘚中穿插著一些黑雲杉,暮春淩晨的空氣中盡是蚊子 翻譯社郝斯曼是加拿大安簡陋省哈密爾頓市麥克馬斯特大學 翻譯研究生研究員,她說,這個樣本從地下3呎獲得,最少已有幾百年歷史。
