英文释义

名词 n.
  1. a hollow or pond formed in a layer of snow or ice, commonly on the surface of a glacier or in polar regions, where a dark patch of cryoconite absorbs sunlight, generating heat so that it melts its way into the white, reflective ice.
    — ...cryoconite holes, thick ice covered lakes, nunataks, and subglacial environments may have played a role as refuges for microorganisms and other biota during periods of glaciation and therefore favoured the development of endemic species.
