现在,海藻在三月中旬就开始生长,生长期会持续到十月。
These ice algae, attached to the sheet itself, account for half the mass of living things inArctic waters.
这些依附于冰盖生长的冰藻数量占了北极海域生物中的一半。
Much of the rest is unattached algae, known as phytoplankton, and tiny animals, known aszooplankton.
而其它大多数是独立生长的海藻,被称为浮游植物,还有被称为浮游动物的小动物。
Both sorts of plankton support, directly or indirectly, the fish and mammals that live in theArctic Ocean.
同时,这两种浮游生物都直接或间接地供养了生活在北冰洋的鱼类和哺乳类动物。
And the plankton, too, are flourishing thanks to global warming.
而且,由于全球变暖也让这些浮游生物大量繁殖。
The Arctic phytoplankton bloom, which used to run from June to September, now runs fromApril to September.
以前,北极浮游生物的大量繁殖期是六月到九月,而现在繁殖期则早在四月就开始了,直到九月才结束。
The upshot is more plankton, farther north.
结果是越往北,浮游生物越多。
That attracts more fish.
