South China Sea level rose by 150 mm since 1900
1900年以来南海海平面上升150毫米
Chinese researchers have reconstructed the history of the South China Sea's sea-level shift using local corals and found that the sea level has risen by 150 mm since 1900.
中国科学家通过对南海当地珊瑚进行研究,重建了海平面的精细变化过程,发现1900年以来南海海平面上升了150毫米。
The researchers analyzed the correlation mechanism between the oxygen stable isotopes of coral and sea level, sea surface salinity, sea surface temperature and rainfall of the South China Sea, and reconstructed the sea level record at an annual resolution.
研究人员综合分析了南海滨珊瑚氧稳定同位素(δ18O)与器测的海平面、盐度、海温、降雨之间的关系,确定了南海海平面与珊瑚氧稳定同位素的统计关系以及控制机理,重建了年分辨率的海平面变化。
The study showed that the sea level fell by 0.73 mm per year from 1850 to 1900, and then rose by 1.31 mm per year from 1900 to 2015. The sea-level rise in the South China Sea has accelerated recently, rising by 3.75 mm per year since 1993.
研究结果显示,在1850–1900年时段,海平面的平均下降速率为0.73毫米/年;在1900–2015年时段的上升速率为1.31毫米/年,1993年以来的上升速率为3.75毫米/年,南海海平面呈现加速上升趋势。
