In the waters around this uninhabited Greek island,

在這座希臘無人島周圍的水域中、

marine scientists are replanting a forest.

海洋科學家正在重新植樹造林。

They're trying to restore a species of brown algae that is crucial for biodiversity, but that has also been affected by climate change.

他們正在努力恢復一種對生物多樣性至關重要的褐藻，但這種褐藻也受到了氣候變化的影響。

They are growing, they are actually like four to five centimeters long now.

它們正在長大，現在已經有四五釐米長了。

Marine ecologist Politi Miladi says the reproductive cycle of the algae, Cystoseira, has been affected by warmer weather.

海洋生態學家波利蒂-米拉迪說，藻類 Cystoseira 的繁殖週期受到了天氣變暖的影響。

Which means that some, many, some years, they may not release spores, so they do not reproduce.

這意味著，在某些、許多、某些年份裡，它們可能不會釋放孢子，是以不會繁殖。

To help the algae thrive again, scientists at the Atlantic Center for Marine Research cultivated on ceramic discs.

為了幫助海藻重新茁壯成長，大西洋海洋研究中心的科學家們在陶瓷盤上進行了培育。

Then they transfer Cystoseira seedlings to the reef at Gyaros Island.

然後，他們將 Cystoseira 幼苗轉移到 Gyaros 島的珊瑚礁上。

If the forest come back, comes back, then all the animals and other plants that are associated to the forest will also return.

如果森林回來了，回來了，那麼與森林相關的所有動物和其他植物也會回來。

Marine ecologist Maria Salomidi emphasizes the potential benefits.

海洋生態學家瑪麗亞-薩洛米迪（Maria Salomidi）強調了潛在的益處。

Where Cystoseira thrive, many, many other species can thrive as well, they give shelter, they give food, they give shadow to other species.

囊尾藻生長的地方，很多很多其他物種也能生長，它們為其他物種提供庇護所、食物和陰影。

So where you have Cystoseira forests, you have the best diversity that you can have in the reef environments of the Mediterranean.

是以，有囊尾藻森林的地方，就有地中海珊瑚礁環境中最豐富的多樣性。

The initiative is part of the co-founded EU project ReForest, which is aimed at enhancing biodiversity in a rich marine protected area.

該倡議是共同發起的歐盟 "再森林 "項目的一部分，該項目旨在提高豐富的海洋保護區的生物多樣性。
