>Mosquitoes are most attracted to a specific color
穿哪种颜色的衣服最招蚊子？

While there are plenty of factors that go into how attractive you are to mosquitoes, new research has found the colors you’re wearing definitely play a role.
很多因素都可能导致你成为“招蚊体质”，但是新研究发现，你穿的衣服颜色也起到了一定作用。

That’s the main takeaway from a new study published in the journal Nature Communications.
这是发表在《自然•通讯》期刊上的一项新研究得出的主要结论。

For the study, researchers from the University of Washington tracked the behavior of female mosquitoes when they were given different types of visual and scent cues.
来自华盛顿大学的研究人员在这项研究中追踪了雌性埃及伊蚊在被给予不同视觉和气味线索时的行为模式。

In case you're not familiar with how mosquitoes find food, they first detect that you’re around by smelling carbon dioxide from your breath.
如果你不了解蚊子是如何觅食的，这里要告诉你，蚊子最开始察觉到你的存在是因为闻到了你呼出的二氧化碳。

When there was no odor like carbon dioxide in the test chambers, the mosquitoes pretty much ignored the colored dot, no matter what hue it was.
如果试验箱里没有二氧化碳的气味，蚊子很可能会对彩色圆点视而不见，不论是什么颜色的圆点。

But once researchers sprayed carbon dioxide in the chamber, they flew toward dots that were red, orange, black, or cyan.
但是研究人员只要在试验箱里喷洒二氧化碳，蚊子就会飞向红色、桔色、黑色或蓝绿色的圆点。

Dots that were green, blue, or purple were ignored.
与此同时，蚊子对绿色、蓝色或紫色的圆点视而不见。

Sea levels along US coastlines will rise between 25 to 30 centimeters on average, above the current levels by 2050, according to a new interagency report published on Tuesday.
2月15日新公布的一份机构间报告称，到2050年，美国海岸线周围的海平面将平均上升25到30厘米。

Coastal flooding will increase significantly over the next 30 years because of the rise, according to the report by an interagency sea level rise task force that includes NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and other federal agencies. The report projects that the rise in ocean height in the next 30 years could equal the total rise seen over the past 100 years.
包括美国宇航局、美国国家海洋和大气管理局和其他联邦机构在内的一个机构间海平面上升工作组预计，美国未来30年海平面将大幅升高，上升幅度或与过去100年的升幅相当。由于海平面上升，未来30年沿海洪水将显著增加。
