arm
建议


Explanation:
如在人体上一样,Arm是地理结构分出去的细长部分,对于山脉丘陵地来说,似乎可以叫岬,对于湖泊来说似乎可以叫湾渠,应该比Bay小一些。

arm
海水河


Explanation:
arm: An inlet of water from the sea

天津成陆历史不过两三千年,他们提出的新观点是用海水改善滨海新区环境。用海水将河道沟通,环境将会有很大的改善。为此,曹代表还专门去欧洲考察过,那些地方的一些河流并不是淡水河,本身就是***海水河,如阿姆斯特丹、威尼斯以及亚洲的新加坡。在高潮水位升高时,将海水引入天津部分二级河道,再从出海口流入大海,陆源微生物就与海洋微生物相互交流。海河没有淡水径流入海后,天津沿海近20年来海里微生物得不到陆源的补充。目前天津市已经着手进行用海水改善滨海新区的环境建设,第一个示范区范围大约25平方公里。几十公里的河道,所有费用加在一起1亿多元。如果完成的话,那一片荒地就变成好地了,不仅能通航,还可进行垂钓。
