如果你留意热带风的移动路线,就会发现它们总是渐渐远离去,常常往南或往北走,也就是移向气温较低的区域。这样,风就能把大量的热能由一个地方转移到另一个地方,有助于和气候。不过,当海洋上空(气候机器的“锅炉房”)的温度超过大约摄氏27度时,热带风就可能吸收到足够的热能,演变成气风或台风。气风、台风基本上是同样的自然现象,只是在不同的地方有不同的叫法。美国有史以来死亡人数最多的天,发生于1900年9月8日。一场吹袭得克斯州的加尔维斯顿市,天巨导致市内6000至8000人生,近地区也被波及,死亡人数多达4000人。风也把大约3600房子为平地,事实上,市内的建物无一幸免,都到程度不一的破坏。正如上一文章提到,近年有好几场破坏力惊人的风。科学家正在研究,这是否跟全球气温上升有关,因为气温上升可能让风吸收更多热能,进而增强风的威力。可是,天气改变也许只是气温上升的一个征而已。事实上,全球气温上升可能已经导致另一个会带来严重后果的现象。

English translation:

If you observe the general path of tropical storms, you will notice that they tend to move away from the equator—either north or south—toward cooler regions. In doing so, storms also serve as massive heat exchangers, helping to moderate the climate. But when the temperature in the upper level of the ocean—the "boiler room" of the climate machine—exceeds about 80 degrees Fahrenheit [27°C], tropical storms may acquire enough energy to become cyclones, hurricanes, or typhoons—regional names for essentially the same phenomena. In terms of lives lost, the worst natural disaster in U.S. history resulted from a hurricane that slammed into the island city of Galveston, Texas, on September 8, 1900. Storm waves claimed between 6,000 and 8,000 lives in the city, plus up to 4,000 in nearby areas, and demolished some 3,600 houses. In fact, not one man-made structure in Galveston remained unscathed. As mentioned in the preceding article, there have been a number of powerful storms in recent years. Scientists are studying whether this is linked to global warming, which may be providing more energy to storm systems. Changes in the weather, however, may be just one symptom of global warming. Another potentially harmful consequence may already be in evidence.
