新闻日期：2024-09-18
中国东部尚未完全恢复，便又要面临新的台风。仅一周前，上海等地刚刚遭遇了数十年来最强的一场台风“贝宾卡”。
据中国气象局预报，从周四晚开始，台风“普拉桑”将登陆沿海地区，可能干扰交通并影响生产。浙江北部、上海市、安徽南部和江苏南部预计将受到影响。
浙江省已启动应急响应机制，应对即将来临的台风。这是今年第14场台风。
此前，“贝宾卡”留下的水灾和农作物受损情况仍在持续。近期，中国及东南亚地区的一系列风暴和暴雨已经造成了超过140人的死亡和广泛的财产损失。
科学家表示，全球变暖导致了台风的强度增加，但并不一定更频繁。气象局的最新报告显示，洪水可能损坏低洼地区的水稻和玉米田；强风还可能吹倒果树，损害温室和渔业设施。
此外，在中国的东北地区，霜冻已对玉米和大豆作物构成威胁，而高雨量可能会阻碍植物生长，并为某些农作物带来病害。

Typhoon season in the northern Pacific Ocean typically lasts from May to October. and moister air — two results of global warming — mean storms are getting more intense, though not necessarily more frequent, according to scientists.China’s weather bureau warned in a separate report that floods could damage low-lying rice and corn fields, adding that strong winds could blow over some fruit trees and damage greenhouses and fishing facilities.In the country’s northeastern grains belt, frost is threatening corn and soybeans while high precipitation could hinder growth and facilitate crop diseases in northern and northwestern areas, according to the report.
