简介
British officials have met flood control experts from the Netherlands and the United States, seeking advice on how to deal with continuing severe floods affecting the south and southwest of Britain.
A wide area known as the Somerset Levels has been underwater for weeks.
The British Meteorological Office senior scientist Julia Slingo says climate change has almost certainly contributed to the storms.
“We're beginning to detect an increase in intensity of daily and hourly rainfall rates over the UK. We're looking at ongoing sea level rise and there are now some studies emerging that suggest the storminess is increasing if we look at the long-term trends over the last century also.”

被称为萨墨赛特水平线的广大区域已经被淹没长达数周了。英国气象办公室的高级科学家茱莉亚.斯林格说气候变化几乎是促成这场洪水的确定原因。
“我们正在着手对英国境内每天和每小时降雨频率的强度增加的探测。我们正在观察不断上涨的海平面,有最新的研究表明,如果我们从上个世纪长期的趋势来看,洪水是在不断增加的。”
