But while much of their focus has been on waters impacts on ice sheet change, their mos

23、t recent research findings have overturned the order of their thinking. Meierbachtol, Harper and their team discovered that changes in the ice sheet have a real impact on the massive groundwater system underlying Greenland.This latest discovery occurred thanks to a marriage of drilling techniques. I

24、nternational cooperators made an angled hole 650 meters through bedrock underneath a Greenland glacier(冰川)to measure groundwater conditions under the ice. Meanwhile, researchers drilled 32 holesfrom atop the glacier, through nearly a kilometer of ice, to measure water conditions at the area between

25、ice and bedrock, which forms an important boundary controlling groundwater flow below. After drilling, the team fixed sensors in the ice column and at the ice sheet bed to measure ice dynamics and water conditions as water flows under the ice.“By studying areas covered by ice 10, 000 years ago, we h

26、ave known that the huge mass and vast amounts of water from melting ice can impact the underlying groundwater, ”Meierbachtol said. “Its generally accepted that the groundwater is sleeping over decades to centuries and its response to ice sheet change is long：thousands of years. But what weve shown h

27、ere is that it is immediate. ”This new understanding could have important subsequent effects on how Greenlands thinning impacts the Arctic. The thinning ice could reduce the rate of groundwater flow to the ocean, changing the water temperature and salinity (盐度) balance that is important for ocean ci

31、h Thinning Ice SheetDWhile orcas (虎鲸) are known for their well-designed joint attacks on oceanic animals, they have never posed a threat to humans. However, since July 2020, the normally social animals have been intentionally attacking sailboats off the coasts of Spain. The unusual hostility is puzz

32、ling scientists worldwide.The strange behavior first surfaced on July 29, when Victoria Morris, a biology graduate, noticed nine orcas circling the 46-foot boat she was crewing near the shores of the Strait of Gibraltar. She was initially cheerful to see the friendly animals, with which she had nume

The intelligent animals may know humans are somehow related to food shortages,” says Ken Balcomb, an American scientist.However,

36、Alfredo Lopez, a Spanish biology professor, thinks the attacks were preventative measures the orcas adopted to protect themselves against boat injuries. The researcher came to this conclusion after looking at the footage of a few incidents filmed on the scene and noticing that two of the young orcas

37、 involved had serious injuries. The scientist wasnt sure if the orcas were hurt during or before the recent boat encounters. Lopez said, “In our opinion, they dont have theslightest intention of attacking people.” Hopefully, the experts will find a way to restore the harmony between the animals and
