18、 at a slower speed than they did decades ago, new research shows.While having a cyclone travel with less speed may seem like a good thing, its actually just the opposite. Wind speeds within the storm remain high, but the whole system itself moves slower, allowing punishing rains to stay longer over

19、communities. “Nothing, good comes out of a slowing storm,” says James Kossin, author of the paper. “It can increase the amount of time that buildings suffered from strong wind. And it increases rainfall.”In his paper, Kossin showed that from 1949 to 2016, tropical cyclones across the globe slowed th

20、eir movement by 10 percent on average. In some regions (地区), the speed of those storms slowed even more as they hit land.

22、ther parts of the globe, that is changing the pressure and reducing the winds that push these storms.Christina Patricola, a scientist, called Kossin9s work important and new and said she found it reliable. “I was not surprised by his findings,” she says. “But I was surprised by the speed of the slow

23、down.”Kossin hopes that scientists will begin building models that show which places are likely to face the most risk. Given that storms in some regions are moving towards polar regions and already increasing in intensity (强度), cyclones causing unusually powerful rain may threaten places not normall

24、y in their paths. Scientists must take action to make those places suffer less from the disasters.8.

30、irst time researchers have tried to read the Herculaneum scrolls. Several years ago, scientists from the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) worked on uncovering the mystery using an X-ray beam 100 billion times brighter than anything used in a hospital, This didnt allow scientists to act

31、ually read the scrolls, but it allowed them to make one surprising discovery. The scrolls were written in metallic (金属的) ink, a writing technology that scientists didnt know existed at the time the scrolls were penned.“For a long time, we thought our studies have let us know everything about the anc

32、ient ink used to write on scrolls. Now we find its not the case.
