According to a statement last week, unseasonably warm temperatures last fall caused water to breach the entrance to The Global Seed Vault, one of humanity's last hopes in the event of global catastrophe.
根据上周的一份声明，去年秋天异常温暖的天气导致流水进入了全球种子库的入口，如果地球毁灭，那么全球种子库就是人类最后的一份希望。
The so-called "Doomsday" seed vault hidden beneath the icy permafrost of Svalbard, midway between Norway and the North Pole contains more than 500 million seeds from around the globe that could be used to recreate food supplies in case of worldwide agricultural calamity.
所谓的“世界末日”种子库位于挪威和北极之间斯瓦尔巴特群岛上的永久冻土之下，里面装有来自世界各地的5亿多粒种子，如果全球发生农业灾难，这些种子可以用来重造粮食供应链。
Hege Njaa Aschim, a spokeswoman for the management company, Statsbygg, said that seeds were unharmed by the water breach. Aschim went on to say that media headlines citing global warming as the cause of the permafrost melt remain speculation, but that is one of the leading theories scientists are investigating.
管理公司Statsbygg的女发言人Hege Njaa Aschim说种子并没有被流水入侵破坏。Aschim还说媒体头条将此次冻土融化的原因归为全球变暖，这还有待确定，不过这也是科学家们正在调查的主要理论。
