Dressed up in white flannels I went over to his lawn a little after seven and wandered around rather ill-at-ease among swirls and eddies of people I didn't know— though here and there was a face I had noticed on the commuting train.

晚上七点一过，我身穿一套白法兰绒便装走过去到他草坪上，很不自在地在一群群我不人中间晃来晃去——虽然偶尔也有一个我在区间火车上见过面孔。

Okay, how do you prevent eddy currents in a transformer?

你如何预防变压器中涡流损耗？

Eddies and whirlpools, the mind new waves, the oceans beneath one, it's all fascinating.

大大小小漩涡中似乎蕴藏着一个神奇水下世界，这足以让孩子们着迷。

They swim up to the ocean surface to poo, and this poo can be spread in an eddy – a large current of water moving in a circular motion, like a giant whirlpool.

它们游到海面上排泄，而这些排泄物会在涡流中扩散开来——大量水流做圆周运动形涡流，就像一个巨大漩涡。

So we were installing what's called an " eddy covariance tower, " which is a series of instruments that measures the exchange of greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide and methane, between the land and the atmosphere.

所以我们安装了一个被称为“涡度协方差”装置，这种装置由多种仪器构，用于测量地面与大气温室气体交换，例如二氧化碳和甲烷。

" The ocean current is a series of complex, interconnected eddies, " says Siegert.

“洋流是一系列复杂且相互关联漩涡。

In 2004, using the Hubble Space Telescope, scientists saw the eddies of a distant cloud of dust and gas around a star, and it reminded them of Van Gogh's " Starry Night."

2004年，通过哈勃太空望远镜科学家观测到一颗遥远恒星周围气体和尘埃云，这让他们想到了梵高《星夜》。

If the Nautilus was submerged during these losses of balance, we heard the resulting noises spread under the waters with frightful intensity, and the collapse of these masses created daunting eddies down to the ocean's lower strata.

当这些冰群平衡破坏了时候，诺第留斯号便潜入水中；声音传到下面，强烈惊人，冰群下沉，而阔可怕水涡；力量直到冰洋很水层。

And look, if I shake it, to mimic the action of a waterfall, swirling and frothing in a violent eddy, you can see that all of the material here is now held in suspension.

看，如果我晃动它，模仿瀑布状态使它旋转、发泡，形一个高速漩涡，你可以看到，里面所有物质现在都处于悬浮状态。

The sea was very rough in the straits, full of eddies formed by the counter–currents, and the chopping waves broke her course, whilst it became very difficult to stand on deck.

海峡中水流非常急湍，到处都是逆流漩涡。唐卡德尔号走得非常吃力，急促海浪阻碍旨它前进。如今在甲板上，很难再站稳脚步。

Rare events known as benthic storms – which are usually related to eddies on the surface – can also cause powerful, sporadic currents that can sweep away material on the seabed.

被称为底栖风暴罕见事件——通常与海面上漩涡有关——也会引起强大、零星洋流，把海底物质卷走。

To and fro I paced before this skeleton—brushed the vines aside—broke through the ribs—and with a ball of Arsacidean twine, wandered, eddied long amid its many winding, shaded colonnades and arbors.

我在这具骨架前踱来踱去—把葡萄藤拨开—挤进肋骨里面去—拿着一团阿萨西斯麻绳，在它众多曲折、荫蔽柱廊和凉亭之中转来转去，漫游了好一阵子。

Its wild water defied the frost, and it was in the eddies only and in the quiet places that the ice held at all.

河流湍急无法结冰。只有河湾处和水流平缓地方才结了冰。

The air currents disperse in eddies and swirls instead of flowing away in streams, which means droplets won't travel as far.

气流分散漩涡状而不是像溪流那样流动，这意味着液滴不会传播那么远。

As a cloud collapses, small eddies in the gas would get amplified, and would create an overall spin.

当云崩溃时，气体中小漩涡会被放大，从而形整体旋转。

Eddies are circular currents of water that are likely a major driver of subsurface events, CSIRO suggested.

CSIRO表示，漩涡是一种环状水流，它可能是地下活动主要驱动力。

An eddy is a large current of water moving in a circular motion.

涡流是指做圆周运动大量水流。

Ocean eddies can affect acidity levels, oxygen levels and nutrient concentrations in the ocean.

海洋漩涡会影响海洋酸度、含氧量和营养物质浓度。

They probably formed along with Jupiter, coalescing from the eddies and whorls around the proto-Jupiter as it formed billions of years ago.

它们可能是与木星一起形，在数十亿年前，从围绕着原始木星物质螺旋中产生。

The engineer whistled, the train started, and soon disappeared, mingling its white smoke with the eddies of the densely falling snow.

司机拉响了汽笛，火车开动了，转眼之间列车已经在白色烟雾和飞舞雪花混乱交错原野里消失了。
