2
Nature's ecosystems are delicate and the species that inhabit them are closely interrelated.
3
While we can learn valuable lessons by studying natural processes, man's careless intervention can have negative consequences for the environment.
4
Gary Jenkins reports.
5
Macquarie Island is located about halfway between Australia and Antarctica.
6
It was once an uninhabited island with a unique ecosystem.
7
But the arrival of Europeans resulted in widespread destruction to the flora and fauna of this designated
8
World Heritage Site.
9
Ecologist Dr. Stella Burnham is here to tell us about how this ecological disaster came about.
10
To understand the scale of the disaster, we must first look at the history of Macquarie Island.
11
It was discovered in 1810 when traders came on sailing ships to hunt seals there.
12
When rodents on the ship started eating up the crew's food supplies, the sailors introduced cats as a predator.
13
Unfortunately, they escaped the ships and reached the island.
14
Later, with rodents eating the ship's supplies, rabbits were introduced and released onto the island by the sailors as an alternative food source for the crew.
15
Over time, the rabbit population expanded dramatically.
16
Eventually, they fell prey to the cats that helped to keep their numbers down, but not before causing significant damage to the island's plant life.
17
Why?
18
Because rabbits are herbivores.
19
In 1968, as a means of protecting the island's remaining flora,
20
scientists introduced nexomatosis, a disease fatal to rabbits.
21
As a result, the rabbit population plummeted from 130 ,000 in 1978 to less than 20 ,000 within a decade,
22
and the island's vegetation recovered.
23
The problem is, though, that species are interdependent, so as the rabbit population declined, cats looked for new prey,
24
and this had major repercussions for the island's ecosystem.
25
Yes, it did, because the cats began hunting the island's native birds that nest in the ground.
26
Eventually, measures were taken to save the native species of birds.
27
A cat eradication program began in 1985, and the last cat was killed in the year 2000.
28
However, myxomatosis had failed to keep the numbers of rabbits in check,
29
and now with its major predator the cat eliminated the rabbit population soared
30
satellite images show that rabbits have reduced large areas of complex vegetation to short grazed lawns
31
or bare ground by 2007 the threat to some protected valleys
32
and slopes was serious our estimations indicate nearly 40 % of the island area has undergone a change.
33
So you can see that invasive species, in this case the cat and the rabbit, consider major changes, including extinction.
34
In extreme cases, there is ecosystem meltdown or total collapse.
35
That's why we sometimes have to eliminate an alien species.
36
What happened here is an example of trophic cascades the domino
37
effect on the food chain caused by changes in the numbers of species.
38
When one species becomes abundant, it can eat another's food supply, feed on another species, plant or animal,
39
or devastate local flora, which in turn affects more species in the chain.
40
Our studies show there is also a link between trophic cascades and the removal of an invasive species.
41
You see, removing the cat, for example, also adversely affected other ecosystems.
42
The birds recovered, but the rabbit population soared, and then vegetation suffered.
43
So the advantages gained by removing the invader may be lost because another species can thrive.
44
On Macquarie Island, ecosystems have been destroyed, and years of conservation work to save its vegetation are threatened.
45
So what do we learn from the events on Macquarie Island?
46
Clearly human intervention in ecosystems must be viable and comprehensive.
47
This implies that we must evaluate not only the benefits, but also the potential risks of human interference,
48
so as to avoid repeating past mistakes that can cost millions of dollars to put right, if they can be corrected at all.

What do we learn from the research on Macquarie Island?
59

61

and the island's vegetation recovered.
66
However, myxomatosis had failed to keep the numbers of rabbits in check, and now, with its major predator,
67
the cat, eliminated, the rabbit population soared.
68

69
Our studies show there is also a link between trophic cascades and the removal of an invasive species.

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟

التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
