台风罗莎“减弱”为强热带风暴
[ 2007-10-08 10:20 ]
今年第16号台风“罗莎”7日在我国东南沿海登陆,沿海各省全力应对,上海特奥会赛程也为此做出调整。那么,台风“减弱”怎么表达呢?
请看《中国日报》的相关报道:
According to the Fujian provincial observatory, Typhoon Krosa hit land at Fujian Province, bordering Zhejiang, at 3:30pm with a wind speed of 33m per second and moved northwest. By 5pm, the typhoon's ferocity had decreased to the intensity equivalent of a tropical storm.
报道中说,据福建省气象台观测结果,台风“罗莎”已于周日(7日)下午15时30分在浙闽交界处登陆,17时减弱为强热带风暴,以近中心最大风力33米/秒的速度向偏西北方向移动。
这里“decrease” 指台风“减弱”;另外,“ease”,“downgrade” 都可以用来表达台风风力减弱。
