看不见深海变化，人类对天气和气候的判断就会变得更迟、更模糊
People often think weather knowledge comes only from satellites in the sky. But a large part of that knowledge also comes from instruments in the sea. Floating buoys, underwater sensors, and research platforms help scientists measure how the ocean is changing below the surface.
人们常以为气象知识仅来自天空中的卫星，但实际上很大一部分也源自海上的仪器。漂浮浮标、水下传感器和研究平台帮助科学家测量海面以下的海洋变化。
Those measurements matter because the ocean stores heat, drives storms, and shapes rainfall. If scientists lose part of that view, forecasts become weaker. They may still know that a problem is coming, but they may know it later and with less confidence.
这些测量至关重要，因为海洋储存热量、驱动风暴并塑造降雨。如果科学家失去部分观测视角，预报就会变得薄弱。他们或许仍知道问题即将来临，但可能发现得更晚且信心不足。
