Science Quickly,Let’s kick things off with some climate news. Back in 2016 an article in the New York Times referred to Iceland as a “mosquito-free island paradise.”虽然附近国家在一年中较温暖的时期是蚊子种群的栖息地，但目前流行的理论之一是，冰岛在解冻和冰冻之间的剧烈波动的倾向有助于阻止吸血鬼立足。 But that same Times piece warned that this skeeter-free status could be in peril.火与冰之地的气温正在上升，当地一位生物学家告诉新闻媒体，如果这个国家持续升温，蚊子可能会在那里安逸。
an article in the New York Times 纽约时报 次数Now mosquitoes have made themselves at home in Iceland for the first time.据当地新闻来源报道，一名昆虫爱好者在野外发现三只疑似蚊子后联系了冰岛自然科学研究所。 An expert confirmed that the bugs were indeed mosquitoes, marking the first time these insects had been found taking up residency on the island.这一事态发展令人不安地提醒人们，全球变暖对我们的星球，尤其是北极地区的潜在影响：《自然》杂志 2022 年的一项研究报告称，1979 年至 2021 年间，该地区的变暖速度几乎是地球其他地区的四倍。
