Moreover, as climate change causes sea levels to rise, extreme storms’ destructive potential is being significantly enhanced. Although this rise may seem small in the short run, especially when compared to the immediate increase caused by major storms, its long-term effects must not be ignored.
此外，随着气候变化导致海平面上升，极端风暴的破坏力也被大大加强了。尽管短期来看，海平面提升幅度很小，特别是与大风暴所引起的即可上升幅度相比。但其长期影响不容忽视。
