2. At 430 meters below sea level, the Dead Sea is Earth's lowest point on land. 死海位于海平面以下430米，是地球陆地上的最低点。
3. The contribution of the recent model is to show that the winds of an El Nino, which raise sea level in the cast, simultaneously send a signal to the west lowering sea level. 最近的模型的贡献在于，它显示了厄尔尼诺现象的风在使海平面上升的同时，也向西方发出了海平面下降的信号。
4. He theorized that with the use of watercraft, people gradually colonized unglaciated refuges and areas along the continental shelf exposed by the lower sea level. 他的理论是，随着船只的使用，人们沿着因海平面下降而暴露的大陆架逐渐移居到未冻结成冰的区域。
5. Unlike floating ice shelves which have little impact on sea level when they break up, the ice sheet is anchored to bedrock will blow the sea surface. 当浮动冰架破裂时，对海平面的影响很小；而与之不同的是，固定在基岩上的冰盖将会使海面炸毁。
