Hans-Otto Portner of the Alfred Wegener Institute in Germany also was not part of the study.

德国的汉斯·奥托·波特纳任职于阿尔弗雷德·魏格纳研究所，他也没有参与这项研究。

There are case reports of Wegener's hitting both the legs and the spine.

确实有过韦氏病同时感染两边的肺叶 和脊椎骨的病例.

If it's Wegener's, his lungs won't be able to handle it.

如果是韦氏病, 他的肺根本撑不住.

Wegener's idea – that the continents move – is at the heart of the theory that guides Earth sciences today: namely plate tectonics.

韦格纳的观点——大陆移动——是指导当今地球科学的理论的核心：即板块构造学。

Wegener showed in great detail how such continental movements were plausible and how they worked, using evidence from a large number of sciences including geology, geophysics, paleontology, and climatology.

韦格纳利用地质学、地球物理学、古生物学和气候学等大量科学证据，详细展示了这种大陆运动的合理性及其运作方式。

Wegener's basic idea was that many mysteries about the Earth's history could be solved if one supposed that the continents moved laterally, rather than supposing that they remained fixed in place.

韦格纳的基本思想是，如果人们假设大陆横向移动，而不是假设它们保持固定在原地，那么关于地球历史的许多谜团就可以得到解决。

Readers interested in the specific detail of Wegener's career will see that he often stopped pursuing a given line of investigation (sometimes for years on end), only to pick it up later.

对韦格纳职业生涯的具体细节感兴趣的读者会发现，他经常停止进行某一特定的调查（有时连续多年），只是后来才重新开始。

Wegener's Theory of Continental Drift directly contradicted the popular opinion that Earth's continents had remained steady for millennia, and it took almost 50 years for his advocates to convince the larger scientific community.

韦格纳的大陆漂移理论直接与地球大陆几千年来保持稳定的流行观点相矛盾，他的支持者花了将近 50 年的时间才说服更大的科学界。

Plate tectonics is in many respects quite different from Wegener's proposal, in the same way that modern evolutionary theory is very different from the ideas Charles Darwin proposed in the 1850s about biological evolution.

板块构造学在许多方面与韦格纳的提议截然不同，就像现代进化论与查尔斯·达尔文在 1850 年代提出的生物进化思想截然不同一样。
