1·This causes the warm surface waters of the Gulf Stream to be pulled northward.
这导致墨西哥湾暖流的地表水被拉向北面。
2·However, phytoplankton flourish only in surface waters where iron levels are sufficiently high.
然而，浮游植物只在铁含量足够高的地表水中繁殖。
3·Less salty surface waters would be less dense and therefore less likely to sink and stir up deep water.
含盐量较低的地表水密度较低，因此下沉和搅动深水的可能性较小。
4·The larvae must feed during their trip, and their springtime release coincides with a peak in algae raining down from surface waters.
幼虫必须在旅途中进食，而它们在春天的释放正好赶上了藻类从地表水倾泻而下的高峰。
5·Thus, although the winter sea-ice cover might decrease, the surface waters would remain cold enough so that the decrease would not be excessive.
因此，虽然冬季海冰覆盖面积可能减少，但表层水将足够冰冷，因此海冰覆盖面积不会减少太多。
6·The theory posited that this meltwater flooded into the North Atlantic, lowering the salinity and intensity of surface waters enough to prevent them from sinking.
该理论假设，这些融水涌入北大西洋，降低了地表水的盐度和强度，足以防止它们下沉。
7·Eventually the temperature of the surface waters of the sea rose, not so fast as the air temperature it is true, but fast enough to produce a dangerous increase of humidity.
最终，海水表面的温度上升，虽然不像空气温度上升那么快，但已经快到足以造成危险的湿度上升。
8·The formation of sea ice causes the concentration of salt in surface waters to increase; less sea ice would mean a smaller increase in the concentration of salt.
海冰的形成导致表水中盐的浓度增加；海冰的减少意味着盐浓度的增加幅度较小。
9·As surface waters warm up through the summer, they become very buoyant.
由于表层水体温暖了整个夏天，变得非常轻盈。
10·Winter storms, it turns out, churn the ocean, mixing surface waters with deeper waters.
冬季的风暴搅动大海，将表层海水与深层海水相混合。
