steepness

基本解释

Surf height depends on the height and steepness of the waves offshore, and to a certain extent on the offshore bottom topography.
拍岸浪的高度取决于近岸的高度和陡度，另外，在某种程度上还取决于近岸的洋底地形特征。
"This is the hardest story I have ever done because of the altitude and the steepness of the mountains," the U.S. photographer told National Geographic. "At night it was 30 below zero [Fahrenheit]."
“这是我做过的最艰难的题材，因为山脉的海拔和险峻，”这位美国摄影师告诉国家地理，“夜里温度是零下30度（华氏温标）（摄氏温度约为零下34度，译者注）。”
But a new study suggests it’s not as bad as it looks. Because people tend to overestimate the steepness of slopes, and not because we’re lazy.
但一项新研究显示，事情并没有你想象中那么难，因为人们倾向于高估边坡陡度——但这并不是因为大家生性懒惰。

陡度
But the data reveals that waves with great steepness can cause strong nonlinear effects, leading to the damage, slamming.
但实践表明，陡度很大但不是很高的波浪可以引起很强的非线性作用，造成结构物的损坏，抨击等。
