欧洲航天局的卫星Goce卫星,其目的是测量地球的重力场中前所未发现的细节,明年将发布的结果将用于监测海平面上升。
The European Space Agency's satellite GOCE, which is designed to measure Earth's gravity field in unprecedented detail, will publish results next year that will be used to help monitor sea level rise.
通过应用卫星重力测量仪器和追踪地震导致的地壳变形,地质学家能够准确的预测将要发生的地震会发生在什么地方(但不能测出什么时候发生)。
Geologists can accurately predict where (but not when) the next earthquake will happen by using satellite gravity measurements and tracing ground deformation caused by earthquakes.
和别的卫星不同,它没有可能干扰重力测量的常规活动部件。
Unlike other satellites, it has none of the usual moving parts that could interfere with the gravity measurements.
