Instead, they stay suspended in the water column scattering light in a very specific way.

反，长时间悬浮在水体中，以一种非常特殊的方式散射光线。

It looks like a pillow that's on it's side and that's so that it can drop down through the water column very, very quickly.

侧面看起来像个枕头，这样就可以很快地潜入水底了。

We're interested in how, for example, the weather events directly affect the water column and in turn does that affect productivity and then again in fish and further up the food chain, cetaceans or seabirds.

例如，气候变化是如何直接影响水柱，并从而影响生产力，鱼类、食物链、鲸目动物或是海鸟的，我对研究这些问题比较感兴趣。

And so, since the coral is vertical in the water column, as water passes by, the corals can get the maximum amount of oxygen, and nutrients, and just water flow, so that they're really in an optimal environment.

因此，由于珊瑚在水柱中是垂直的，随着水的流过，珊瑚可以获得最大限度的氧气和营养，只有水流，所以真的处于最环境中。

They can be driven by winds at the surface affecting the water column below, deep water tides or differences in the water density caused by temperature and salinity, known as thermohaline currents.

可以由影响水下水柱的表面风、深水潮汐或由温度和盐度引起的水密度差异（称为温盐流）驱动。

Responding to tiny changes in light that would prompt them to move up the water column when the sun went down and then back down at sunrise.

对光线的微小变化做出反应，这种变化促使在太阳下山时向上移动，然后在日出时返回。

So on the mooring itself at the bottom of the water column, that's where his sensor, which is called the DMON, digital acoustic monitoring instrument.

在水柱底部的系泊设备上，这就是他的传感器，也就是被称为DMON的数字声学监测仪。

Considering that it fell a few miles through water column, I think that the scattering of... of artefacts is rather small.

考虑到在水柱中下降了几英里，我认为......文物的分散当小。

And there's just not a lot of data about what the particle distribution is in the water column.

关于垂直水域中的颗粒分布情况，目前并没有很多数据。

The particles in the water column adsorb that iron and prevent it from getting out.

海水中的粒子吸附铁并阻止其逸出。

We've also got the whole water column to consider too.

我还必须考虑整个水体柱。

The afterlife of a whale is tracked from the surface where its floating carcass is packed and debrised by scavengers down through the water column past fish that resemble bottled fireworks to its resting place on the sea bed There.

鲸鱼的身后事从其浮尸表面开始追踪，那里被食腐动物分解和清理，然后穿过水柱，经过那些像瓶装烟花的鱼类，最终到达海底的安息之地。

The researchers studied the slight deformations in the cable and were able to sense a small earthquake, pinpoint unmapped faults in the seafloor and observe movements in the water column—all of which might be of interest to oceanographers.

研究人员研究了电缆中的微小变形， 能够感知到小型地震，确定未绘制地图的海底断层， 并观察到水柱的运动——所有这些都可能引起海洋学家的兴趣。

This meant daily observation of how the currents moved through my fields, where the sweetest nutrients flowed in the water column, and how a mix of winds and tides shifted the movement of my kelp rows.

这意味着每天都要观察水流如何穿过我的田地，水柱中最丰富的营养物质流向何处，以及风和潮汐的混合如何改变了海带行的移动。

Most deep sea creatures are confined to a narrow range in the water column where nutrients are scarce, since the food drifting downwards from the surface rapidly sinks to the seafloor.

大多数深海生物都局限于水柱中一个狭窄的区域， 那里营养匮乏，因为从海面漂流而下的食物迅速沉入海底。

This means more of a dog’s tongue is touching the water, so dogs end up making a bigger, messier water column before they clamp their mouths shut.

这意味着更多狗的舌头接触到水，所以狗在闭上嘴之前最终制造出更大、更混乱的水柱。

The main relevant international treaty An eight-year-old addendum to the packed calls for 17% of the world's land surface and 10% of the oceans water column.

主要的关国际条约是一个八年前的附加议定书，呼吁保护全球陆地表面的17%和海洋水柱的10%。

Other baleen whales like humpbacks or rights feed on plankton, krill or small fish in the water column, gray whales are also baleen whales.

其他须鲸，如座头鲸或露脊鲸，以水体中的浮游生物、磷虾或小鱼为食，灰鲸也是须鲸。

They fed by filtering out suspended food from the water column and channeling it through upward-facing feeding grooves to their mouths.

通过过滤水柱中的悬浮食物，并将其引导至朝上的进食槽中送入口中来摄食。

While fish, shellfish, and other underwater creatures can come into contact with oil if it's mixed into a water column.

而鱼类、贝类和其他水下生物如果混入水柱中，可能接触到石油。
