释义

n. 岩石圈, 陆界\n[化] 岩石圈

例句

Even the planet's outer skin, or lithosphere, has been transformed.

甚至于地球的表层——岩石圈——也已经被改变了。

Since the size of the Earth is essentially constant, new lithosphere can be created at the mid-ocean ridges only if an equal amount of lithospheric material is consumed elsewhere.

因为地球的大小本质上是不变的，只有同等数量的岩石圈物质在其它地方被吞没，新的岩石圈才能生成。
