Traditionally , pollination by wind has been viewed as a reproductive process marked by random events in which the vagaries of the wind are compensated for by the generation of vast quantities of pollen, so that the ultimate production of new seeds is assured at the expense of producing much more pollen than is actually used.

解释说：说compensated for，这是由于主语the vagaries of the wind并不是被补偿的对象，而是补偿的对象。
可是提供的中文翻译还是“风的反复无常被大量的产生花粉所补偿”

请问如何理解are compensated for的这个for？强迫症难受。。。

这就是compensate的一个短语罢了，不要太纠结这里了
