At 418 m (1,371 ft) below sea level, it is almost nine times as salty as the ocean, which makes it impossible for most life to exist in it.
低于海平面418米(1 371英尺),盐度是海洋的近9倍,这使得大多数生物它不可能在此生存。
For example, as the atmospheric carbon-dioxide level in Hawaii goes up, the ph at a mid-ocean mooring about 450km to the north-west goes down (see chart).
例如在夏威夷,大气中二氧化碳浓度在升高,其西北方向约450公里处海洋监测点的PH值在下降(见图表)。
