Andy Smith is flying down the Peninsula to study
安迪·史密斯正朝半島飛去
this phenomenon first hand.
準備第一時間研究這種現象
We're flying to a place called Wilkins Ice Shelf.
我們正飛往一個叫做威爾金斯冰架的地方
It's an ice shelf that, over the last couple of years,
近幾年來
has shown a very sudden and dramatic break-up.
這個冰架突然出現大量破裂
The Wilkins Ice Shelf is a two-hour long flight south
從研究基地起飛 需兩小時
from his research base,
才能到達威爾金斯冰架
but Andy can start to see the evidence of ice shelf break-up
但在離目的地很遠的地方
a long way before he gets there.
安迪便看到了冰架裂開的跡象
As we're heading further south,
當到達更南端的地方時
we can see more and more icebergs in the ocean.
就能看到越來越多的海上冰山群了
And most of the big ones will be ones
大多數大型冰山
that have broken off the ice shelves in this area.
都是由附近的冰架斷裂形成的
Once we cross the mountains,
一旦越過山脈
we should be able to see Wilkins Ice Shelf
就能看見威爾金斯冰架
and then it's not far then to the ice front,
再走不遠就能看到
here, where it's collapsing.
正在崩塌的冰崖
