We're up here to document whether species air moving upward.

我們上來是為了記錄物種空氣是否向上移動。

Mm hmm.

嗯哼。

What we're finding in mountainous environments is that species from plants to animals to insects, they're actually rising in elevation.

我們在山地環境中發現，從植物到動物到昆蟲的物種，它們的海拔其實都在上升。

In adapting to these thermal niches, we're trying to understand how climate change is impacting them.

在適應這些熱龕的過程中，我們正試圖瞭解氣候變化是如何影響它們的。

I'm leaving a biology team to perform a comprehensive biodiversity survey of the Khumbu Valley.

我將離開一個生物小組，對昆布谷進行全面的生物多樣性調查。

What we're doing up here is trying thio understand what species are living up in these extreme environments by having our researchers go up higher to survey for things like plants, rodents and insects.

我們在這裡做的是試圖瞭解哪些物種生活在這些極端的環境中 讓我們的研究人員到更高的地方去調查植物、齧齒動物和昆蟲等東西。

Comparing it to historical data from previous expeditions can give us ah lot of information about whether we can actually define how quickly these species are already moving.

將它與之前考察的歷史數據進行比較，可以給我們提供啊很多資訊，我們是否可以真正定義這些物種已經移動的速度。

Upwards of two types of surveys will be doing our water filtration, collecting water samples, doing things like turning over rocks, looking underneath and seeing what's there.

上面有兩種調查會做我們的水過濾，收集水樣，做的事情是翻開石頭，看看下面有什麼。

As a biologist, I focus in on the micro scale to really look for minute little details.

作為一名生物學家，我專注於微觀尺度，真正尋找微小的細節。

It's great working with Anton as a partner because he and step back and look at it from a more holistic understanding a background looking at the climatology off landscapes, and so that helps us understand better the organisms that were studying in the context of the landscape.

和安東一起工作是很好的搭檔，因為他退後一步，從一個更全面的理解來看，他的背景是看景觀的氣候學，所以這有助於我們更好地理解在景觀背景下研究的生物。

In terms of the ability to respond to climatic changes, different species have different capacities for responsible to use a local example.

就應對氣候變化的能力而言，不同的物種有不同的能力，用當地的例子來說就是負責任。

Pure bred yaks can no longer live at the elevation where they used to live.

純種犛牛已經不能再在以前的海拔高度生活了。

My whole family has lived in these mountains your whole life.

我的家人一直住在這些山裡，你的一生。

They have seen changes themselves, and they've lived through changes before we could see yaks down to an empty.

他們自己也看到了變化，他們也經歷了變化，我們才能看到犛牛下到一個空。

But now they're no longer able to tolerate the warming climate here, so they have to move about.

但現在它們已經無法忍受這裡的氣候變暖了，所以它們不得不四處搬家。

Thes small minute observations are actually very much important for any sort of scientific base understanding.

這些微小的觀察對於任何一種科學基礎的理解其實都是非常重要的。

When we come up here to do our visual encounter, surveys will pick a piece of habitat that looks really good for species.

當我們來到這裡進行目測時，調查會選擇一塊看起來很適合物種生長的棲息地。

The soil will be well developed.

土壤會發育良好。

Will be plants will turn over rocks.

將植物將翻開石頭。

Well, that's a bristle.

好吧，這是個毛筆。

Tail bristles.

尾部刷毛。

Got him.

抓住他了

You got him when we find something will collect the animal in a plastic tube so we can photograph and measure it and document it.

你得到了他，當我們發現的東西將收集的動物在一個塑料管，所以我們可以拍攝和測量它，並記錄它。

He's got.

他有。

He's long sticking up.

他長的挺拔。

The slope is incredibly unstable.

坡度驚人的不穩定。

Rocks constantly in motion on their pebbles and rocks covering the surface.

岩石在其卵石和覆蓋在表面的岩石上不斷運動。

But when you remove them, look underneath were finally basically.

但當你把它們取下時，看看下面終於被基本上。

Soils are developed.

土壤發育。

There's masses.

有民眾。

There's little tassel grasses.

有小流蘇草。

Basically, an ecosystem seems to actually be developing under the surface of this very unstable rocky substrate.

基本上，在這個非常不穩定的岩石基底的表面下，似乎真的有一個生態系統在發展。

There's much more life appear than meets the eye.

生活遠比想象中的要精彩得多。

At first glance, that's for sure.

乍一看，那是肯定的。

When we get back to the lab will do analysis, combined with reaching out to local experts like entomologists and botanists to be able to identify all the species of the taxonomic level.

當我們回到實驗室會做分析，結合聯繫當地的專家，如昆蟲學家和植物學家，能夠識別所有物種的分類學水準。

If there are any micro more organisms in here, they'll be throughout the solution.

如果這裡有任何微觀的更多的生物，他們將在整個解決方案。

What we're trying to do is gather as much information as possible to really understand.

我們要做的是收集儘可能多的資訊，真正瞭解。

How can we adapt to climate change, how people adapt to living up here?

我們如何適應氣候變化，人們如何適應這裡的生活？

How our species adapting?

我們的物種如何適應？

Yeah, this climate change study doesn't end here.

是啊，這個氣候變化研究並沒有結束。
