It would be fantastic if we could refreeze the Arctic.

如果我们能重新极就好了。

And here is what would happen if we could refreeze the Arctic?

我们一路坎坷，如果我们重新极会怎样。

We should at least try to refreeze a small portion of it.

至少应该试着重新结一小部分。

If the sea refreezes, they can become trapped, unable to feed or reach the surface to breathe.

如果海面再次结，它们就会被困住，无法进食，无法探出水面进行吸。

The warm air completely melts the ice into rain and then doesn't have time to refreeze back into snow.

温暖的空气将完全融化成雨，且有时间重新结成雪。

Much of the melt will refreeze, but the amount that is lost for good might exceed the record loss in 2012.

多数融会再次结，但永远失去的盖数量将打破2012年的记录。

A lot of what melts, however, does not flow away. It later refreezes onto the ice sheet when the weather cools.

然而，许多融化的水有流失。当气候变冷时，它会再次结在盖上。

Formerly a solid mass that melted and refroze at its edges, it is now thinner, more fractured, and so more liable to melt.

以前融化和结仅发生在块的边缘，但是它现在变得更薄，更易破裂，且更倾向融化。

Sleet is similar except it falls through a smaller layer of warm air and has time to refreeze just a bit before reaching the ground.

雨夹雪与之相似，只是它通过了一层较小的暖空气层，在达到地面之前有时间再重新结一下。

It's normal for most of the Arctic Ocean to melt in the summer and refreeze in the winter, but the past few summers have seen unprecedented melting.

洋大部分地区在夏季融化，在冬季重新结是正常的，但在过去的几个夏季出现了前所未有的融化。

As it makes its decent, they both melt into a raindrop as it's entering the lower levels of the atmosphere sleet will refreeze into basically an ice pellet.

当雨滴进入大气层的低层时，它们都会融化成一个雨滴，雨夹雪基本上会重新结成一个粒。

You don't want to do that. Refreezing not only removes moisture, but it creates ice crystals in the fibers of the meat that can compromise its taste and texture.

你不会想那样做的。二次冷不仅会损失水分，还会在肉的纤维里产生晶，那会影响肉的味道和肉质。
