海洋是当今世界无处不在的一个部分,我们大多对此习以为常,不予重视。人与海洋之间产生这种脱节,部分原因是人类与海岸之间存在一定距离。如果我们从没努力去遥望那片蓝色地平线,咫尺之距也会让我们感觉相隔半个世界。另一部分原因在于,对于海洋如何影响人类,我们缺乏基本的了解。海洋给我们的天气带来了缓冲作用,为我们提供了充足的食物。很多现代药物也是经由几十年对海洋不懈的研究而研制成功的。这种脱节的另一原因还可能是,我们不知道用什么言语来描述海洋对我们的情感产生的影响。这后一个原因是个非常难概括的概念。虽然诗人,词曲家及艺术家已经用不同的方式来描述大海,从愤怒到恐惧,从平静到沉思,但不论在历史上乃至现代,很少有研究来分析人与海洋之间这种联系的神经基础。直到近来才开始在此领域有所探索。无论现在我们采取什么方式保护海洋,来获取它的信息,都没有太凑效--至少效果不会那么快。许多人并不真正了解海洋。尽管一生中可能有很多时间被大海吸引,他们并不知道为什么。科学家也没法解释。要让保护海洋的信息在人们心里根深蒂固,我们必须就海洋保护的神经学基础提出新的问题。我们是海洋世界的重要构成部分,海洋也是人类世界的重要组成部分。2.Theocean,asanindispensablepartofourworld,buffersourweather,andprovidesuswithfoodandmanyofmodernmedicines.However,wejustignored(didn’tgiveenoughattentionto)theconnectivitybetweentheoceanandhumansphere.Onlyuntilrecently,havetheteamledbymarineconservationbiologistDr.WallaceJ.Nicholsstartedtoexploretheconnectionbetweenhumanmindsandtheoceanfrommultidisciplinaryperspectives.Theyputforwardanewresearchfield—neuroconservation,whichledtoarevolutioninmarinescience.Dr.WallyBroecker,afamousoceanographer,calledthephenomenonofdeepwatercirculation“OceanConveyorBelt”.Thisstatementisanoversimplificationofacomplexprocess.Dr.SusanLozierfromDukeUniversityoverwhelmedtheideaaboutoceanoverturningafterconsidering/weighingdifferentpiecesofevidence.Whatevertheoutcomewouldbe,thereisnodoubtthattheoceanholdsourplanettightlIdiomStudiespushtheboatout2missedtheboat3inrocktheboat5justofftheboat6doesn'treallyfloatmyboat7burnedmyboat8whateverfloatsyourboatProverbsorQuotations充满希望的旅行比到达目的地更美妙。如果每走一步都要数着,你的旅程就长了。我曾相信,所有值得知道之事,我在剑桥都知道了。在我旅行的过程之中,这一想法逐渐消失了。这与我本意相反,但是却对我非常有益。如果你想走到高处,就要用自己的两条腿!不要让别人把你抬到高处;不要坐在别人的背上和头上。永不走回头路,这是智者的一条座右铭。卓越的天才不屑走旁人走过的路,他寻找迄今未开拓的地区。人可以爬到最高峰,但他不能在那儿久住。有了好的旅伴,路途就变得无比短暂。PartIII参考译文世界海洋每年6月8日,海洋爱好者庆祝世界海洋日。去年,在45个国家举行了300多场官方活动。这些活动让大家意识到,作为地球上最大且最复杂的生态系统,海洋是如何影响地球其余的生态系统及其居民的,海洋又是如何触及人类的本质和人类与海洋领域的联系的。海洋是当今世界无处不在的一个部分,我们大多对此习以为常,不予重视。人与海洋之间产生这种脱节,部分原因是人类与海岸之间存在一定距离。如果我们从没努力去遥望那片蓝色地平线,咫尺之距也会让我们感觉相隔半个世界。另一部分原因在于,对于海洋如何影响人类,我们缺乏基本的了解。海洋给我们的天气带来了缓冲作用,为我们提供了充足的食物。很多现代药物也是经由几十年对海洋不懈的研究而研制成功的。这种脱节的另一原因还可能是,我们不知道用什么言语来描述海洋对我们的情感产生的影响。这后一个原因是个非常难概括的概念。虽然诗人,词曲家及艺术家已经用不同的方式来描述大海,从愤怒到恐惧,从平静到沉思,但不论在历史上乃至现代,很少有研究来分析人与海洋之间这种联系的神经基础。直到近来才开始在此领域有所探索。海洋保护生物学家华莱士·J·尼科尔斯博士与来自艺术、市场营销和工程领域的同事共同创立BLUEMIND倡议项目,旨在桥接神经科学和保护生物学,开发一个新领域,即神经保护学,目的在于深层次了解大脑与海洋之间的联系。这种努力是令人印象深刻的,体现了真正的多学科研究。这种努力也有极大的潜力,可以帮助我们了解人们关心环境问题并采取相应行动的动机。“长期以来,营销人员就知道,人类大脑对于简单的信息反应最快,这些信息要以通俗易懂的故事方式经常重复。但是科学家并不喜欢‘营销’一词。”经常看《哈佛商业评论》的尼科尔斯解释道。尼科尔斯是众多的海洋科学家其中一员,他们都看到运用跨学科方法来攻坚研究问题的价值所在。这跟世界海洋日要传递的信息类似,也正是我要强调的。正如同科学研究各领域相互联系,没有界限,世界上也没有七海四大洋的界限划分。只有一个世界海洋,它包含了世界上所有的现象。传统上历来认为,海洋科学本质上是跨学科的冒险事业。水世界是一个三维环境,遵循着物理学以及生态学和进化论的规律,创造了巨大的生命多样性。经过200多年缜密的探索,对这个世界,我们也仅有微弱的认知。世界海洋是相互连接的。图像地图清楚地标注了大洋盆地之间的不同洋流循环模式,但却掩盖了一些事实:海底深处水流速度减慢,水流移动,月圆月亏的强度和方向以及深水团缓慢的千年移动。这些水团是在北大西洋和南极洲外围形成的。这里,温暖的热带水被寒冷的极地水覆盖,在北极风的吹拂下变冷。表面的水结冰,盐分沉到下层水中。寒冷、高密度的水下沉,开始了环游世界的千年之旅。著名海洋学家沃利·布勒克博士称这一现象为“海洋循环带”。但是对于解释海洋热量净流量这一复杂过程,布勒克博士的说法实在过于简单化。这种模式主导海洋学近半个世纪,但这种模式可能过于简单化。特别是在过去的十年中,技术发展让海洋科学家探索海洋的决心越来越大。曾经一度被忽视的过程,如海风模式和涡流场,似乎对海洋倾覆起到了更大的作用。《科学》杂志去年发表的一篇回顾评论中,杜克大学的苏珊·洛兹博士对海洋循环带模式提出质疑。她摆出了各种证据,足以推翻我们的海洋倾覆观念。毫无疑问,虽然科学家心中明白,海洋倾覆确实存在--这是一个可直接衡量的特性--以前提出的模式是有点太简单化了。最重要的是,近来探测发现:漩涡,即直径达100公里的涡旋水体,可以重新分配循环带的水团。这一发现是否会改变整个海洋是如何连接的?一点也不会,相反,它更好地协调了这种连接。深层水并非沿着海洋盆地西部边界移动,实际上受到从两极流向赤道的漩涡驱动,它是在内部移动。洛兹博士写到,“深层循环带理论因其简单而引人注目,但由于过度概括海洋倾覆的复杂性,多年过去已变得黯然失色。不论在空间上还是时间上,以及在先前样品采集很稀少的地方,对海洋的观测规模都越来越大,因此,这一复杂性已经慢慢显露出来。”更好的技术和样本采集方法使得海洋科学领域的这场革命顺利展开。19世纪,福布斯赞同的无生命假设认为,水深500米以下区域是不可能有生命存在的。由于打捞技术、水深测量和水收集工具的发展以及“挑战者号”大量的探测工作,这一假设只能一直封存在戴维·琼斯的储物柜中。(意为不成立,无法拿出来示人)这场革命模式本身就有点过于简单和夸大了。很少有论文一经发表就可以马上改变一个研究领域。所谓的模式会逐渐改变。艾萨克•牛顿温和而严肃地提到,只有“站在巨人的肩膀上”,方可验证假设,收集证据,得出结论而后进行辩论。新近收集整理的潮汐涨落证据从另一个方向动摇了潮汐理论。我们甚至只能提出瞬息间形成的问题,因为历史留下的大量文献提供了一条永存的“传送带”,它会不断产生新的问题。世界海洋的未来满是兴奋点,一则是以后存在的可能性,二则是我们已经很大程度影响了这一重要的系统,对此我们心存恐惧。我们跟海洋如何联系在一起,已不是什么秘密。海水和我们体液的构成方式是类似的。距离海岸线最远的人仍然保持自己内心的海洋,想躲避它是不可能的。我们被海景所吸引,花血汗钱去值得待上几星期的沙滩度度假,冲冲浪,并竭尽全力把海鲜带到最内陆的城市。也许海洋科学的一个新领域,一场新革命将是了解我们与海洋是如何在心理上连接在一起的。海洋是我们这个星球的黏合剂。地球上近四分之三都是咸水,海水绵延在大陆周围,围绕着岛屿。水永远不会离开我们。它围绕地球移动,蒸发到空气中又随雨水落回大地,流入河流,但最终总是回归海洋。我们就像水,不管如何流动,总是最终停留在海洋附近。了解如尼科尔斯博士所说的“心与海的连接”实际上可以挽救我们自己的生命。无论现在我们采取什么方式保护海洋,来获取它的信息,都没有太凑效--至少效果不会那么快。许多人并不真正了解海洋。尽管一生中可能有很多时间被大海吸引,他们并不知道为什么。科学家也没法解释。要让保护海洋的信息在人们心里根深蒂固,我们必须就海洋保护的神经学基础提出新的问题。我们是海洋世界的重要构成部分,海洋也是人类世界的重要组成部分。尼科尔斯建议,“是时候来摒弃那些所谓情感和科学应该分离的旧观念。情感就是一门科学[...]还未被揭开谜底的海洋中最大的那些秘密,不是埋藏在蔚蓝色的海底,而是埋藏在人类的心灵深处,这是很可能的,甚至也许是确定无疑的。”TextBPartIUnderstandingandLearningBackgroundinformationUnitedStatesNavalObservatoryTheUnitedStatesNavalObservatory(USNO)isoneoftheoldestscientificagenciesintheUnitedStates,withaprimarymissiontoproducePositioning,Navigation,andTiming(PNT)fortheU.S.NavyandtheU.S.DepartmentofDefense.LocatedinNorthwestWashington,D.C.,itisoneofthepre-1900astronomicalobservatorieslocatedinanurbanarea;atthetimeofitsconstruction,itwasfarfromthelightpollutionthrownoffbythe(then-smaller)citycenter.Today,theobservatory'sprimaryobservationalworkisdoneattheU.S.Navy'shigherelevationUnitedStatesNavalObservatory,FlagstaffStation(NOFS)nearFlagstaff,Arizona.USNOalsohasan"AlternateMasterClock"siteinColoradoSprings,TheRoyalSocie

海洋学,也称为海洋科学,主要研究海洋,是地球科学的一个分支。它所覆盖的研究科目很多,包括海洋生物和生态系统动力学;洋流、海浪和地球流体动力学;板块结构和海底地质;海底及其边界区域各种化学物质的通量以及物理特性。这些不同的科目反映出多学科研究的趋势。为了进一步认识海洋世界,了解其内部活动,海洋学家融合多学科知识进行研究,包括生物学,化学,地质学,气象学,物理学和地理学。海洋学研究与了解全球气候变化、潜在的全球变暖和相关的生物圈问题是相关联的。水蒸发、降水和热通量(及太阳辐射)这些因素将大气和海洋联系在一起。风应力是洋流的主要驱动力,而海洋则吸收大气中的二氧化碳。我们这个星球有两个伟大的海洋:一个可见,一个看不见;一个在脚下,一个在上空;一个完全包裹着这个星球,另一个则占据地球三分之二的表面。这些学科分支反映了一个事实,许多海洋学家首先在精密科学或者数学方面接受训练,然后把他们的多学科知识、技能和能力集中应用到海洋学研究中。海洋学家工作所得出的数据,可应用于海洋工程,石油平台,船舶,港口,以及其它结构的设计和建设中。这样可以帮助我们安全地使用海洋。海洋学数据管理是另外一门学科,可以确保研究人员获取过去和现在的海洋学数据。2.Oceanography(ormarinescience)isthestudyaboutnaturaloceanphenomena,itsnatureandlawofvariationaswellastheknowledgerelatedtothedevelopmentandexploitationabouttheocean.Humanbeingsacquiredknowledgeabouttheoceansinpre-historictimes.Throughcenturies’efforts,basedonexperimentsandobservations,scientistsfurtheredknowledgeabouttheoceanswithvariousmethods,suchasechosounding,depthdredging.Theuseofmoderndevicessuchassubmarines,satellitesandlarge-scalecomputersreflectedthatmoderntechnologyplayedasignificantroleinthedevelopmentofmarinescience.Manynations,organizationsandresearchinstitutesweredevotedtothestudyofmarinescience.Marinesciencecoversawiderangeoffundamentalstudiesinmarinephysics,marinechemistry,marinebiology,andmarinegeology.Thesciencealsoappliestotheexploitationofmarineresourcesaswellasmaritimemilitaryactions.Theoceanandtheatmospherearecloselyinterdependentandrelated.Therefore,thestudyoftheoce
