It would be odd if the rising convection currents kept exact pace with them.
如果上升的对流与它们保持保持完全一致,那就奇怪了。
Theoretically, this convection would carry the continental plates along as though they were on a conveyor belt.
从理论上讲,这种对流会把大陆板块带到一起,好像把它们放在传送带上一样。
Another possibility is that the sinking plate cools the neighboring mantle and produces convection currents that move the plates.
另一种可能是下沉的板块冷却了邻近的地幔,并产生对流,使板块移动。
Furthermore, the birds orient themselves carefully with regard to the Sun and gently flap their wings to increase convection cooling.
此外,这些鸟会根据太阳的位置谨慎调整自己的方向,并轻轻拍打翅膀以增加对流的降温效果。
The sparse distribution of the feathers, however, also allows considerable lateral air movement over the skin surface, thereby permitting further heat loss by convection.
然而,羽毛的稀疏分布也使得皮肤表面形成相当大量的侧向空气流动,从而可以通过对流进一步散热。
