los ntawm Mark J. Spalding, Thawj Tswj Hwm ntawm Ocean Foundation

Lub Gulf of Mexico yog ib qho chaw paub txog North America. Nws ntsuas qee qhov 930 mais (1500 km) hla thiab npog thaj tsam ntawm 617,000 square mais (lossis me ntsis ntau dua ob npaug ntawm Texas). Lub Gulf yog ciam teb los ntawm tsib lub tebchaws United States mus rau sab qaum teb (Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas), rau lub xeev Mev mus rau sab hnub poob (Quintana Roo, Tamaulipas, Veracruz, Tabasco, Campeche, Yucatan), thiab cov kob ntawm Cuba mus rau sab hnub tuaj. Nws yog lub tsev rau ib qho chaw ntawm marine mammals, ntses, noog, invertebrates, thiab hom chaw nyob. Peb lub teb chaws uas koom nrog Gulf muaj ntau lub laj thawj los koom tes los xyuas kom meej tias peb cov cuab yeej cuab tam ib txwm yog peb cov keeb kwm qub.

Ib qho kev sib koom tes tseem ceeb yog Trinational Initiative ntawm Ocean Foundation's Cuba Marine Research thiab Conservation project. Lub Rooj Sib Tham Lub Rooj Sib Tham 7th tau muaj nyob rau ntawm National Aquarium hauv Cuba thaum nruab nrab Lub Kaum Ib Hlis. Nws tau koom nrog ntau dua 250 tsoomfwv, kev kawm thiab NGO cov neeg sawv cev los ntawm Cuba, Mexico thiab Tebchaws Meskas - peb lub rooj sib tham loj tshaj plaws rau hnub tim.  

 Lub ntsiab lus ntawm lub rooj sib tham xyoo no yog "kev tsim cov choj los ntawm kev tshawb fawb thiab kev txuag dej hiav txwv." Ob lub ntsiab lus tseem ceeb ntawm lub rooj sib tham yog qhov pib ntawm XNUMX pawg neeg ua haujlwm, thiab tsis ntev los no tau tshaj tawm "cov kwv tij cov chaw ua si" kev pom zoo ntawm Asmeskas thiab Cuba.

Trinational Initiative Plan of Action Working Groups

Ob peb xyoos dhau los, cov tswvcuab ntawm Txoj Haujlwm Pabcuam no tau tsim ib qho kev sib koom ua ke ntawm kev nqis tes ua ntsig txog kev sib koom tes thiab kev sib koom tes tshawb fawb ntawm coral reefs, sharks & rays, hiav txwv vaub kib, marine mammals, nuv ntses, thiab marine tiv thaiv thaj chaw. Rau pawg neeg ua haujlwm (ib qho rau txhua qhov chaw tshawb fawb) tau tsim los ntxiv rau txoj kev npaj ua. Txhua pab pawg tau ntsib los qhia cov kev paub dhau los txij li peb lub rooj sib tham zaum kawg thiab npaj cov ntsiab lus, uas suav nrog kev ua tiav, xwm txheej, thiab kev npaj rau yav tom ntej. Daim ntawv tshaj tawm tag nrho yog tias kev sib koom tes thiab kev koom tes tau yooj yim dua vim yog kev so ntawm kev tso cai thiab kev tso cai los ntawm tub ceev xwm. Txawm li cas los xij, tseem muaj qhov tsis muaj peev xwm tshaj tawm cov ntaub ntawv vim tsis muaj kev siv computer thiab Internet hauv tebchaws Cuba, thiab tsis muaj hluav taws xob nkag mus rau Cuban tshawb fawb cov ntaub ntawv thiab cov ntawv tshaj tawm.

 Vim tias lub rooj sib tham no tshwj xeeb hauv kev sim txuas kev txuag rau kev tshawb fawb txog kev tshawb fawb, cov ntawv ceeb toom tsis yog tsuas yog kev sib tham ntawm cov chaw nkaum, tab sis kuj, kev tiv thaiv kev lag luam lossis kev muag khoom ntawm cov tsiaj txhu. Nws yog qhov yuav luag thoob plaws ntiaj teb uas yuav tsum tau hloov kho qhov tseem ceeb thiab cov cib fim tshwm sim hauv txoj kev npaj ua ib feem vim tias nws tau ua kom muaj kev sib raug zoo ntawm Asmeskas thiab Cuba. Piv txwv li, cov kev cai tshiab tau yooj yim tuaj yeem ua rau peb sib qhia satellite thiab lwm yam ntaub ntawv los tsim cov duab qhia chaw ntawm Gulf of Mexico uas qhia txog kev paub tshwj xeeb ntawm qhov chaw tsim los ntawm txhua ntawm peb lub tebchaws. Daim ntawv qhia kev sib koom no yuav, nyob rau hauv lem, ob qho tib si ua qauv qhia thiab qhia txog qhov kev sib txuas ntawm Gulf. Nyob rau sab ntxeev, cov kev cai tshiab tshiab tau txhawb nqa lwm lub ntsiab lus rau kev sib tham: Muaj ntau cov lus qhia txog lub peev xwm (nyob rau hauv lub neej yav tom ntej) thaum US embargo yuav raug tshem tawm, thiab tej zaum yuav tshwm sim ntawm kev loj hlob nyob rau hauv tourism kev ua si, nrog rau kev dhia dej thiab ua si nuv ntses. , yuav muaj nyob rau ntawm ntug hiav txwv dej thiab marine ib puag ncig.

Tus muam Parks tshaj tawm:
Cov lus tshaj tawm ntawm Cuba-Asmeskas cov viv ncaus cov chaw ua si tau ua nyob rau ntawm "Peb Dej Hiav Txwv" lub rooj sib tham uas muaj nyob rau hauv Chile thaum Lub Kaum Hli, 2015. Cuba's Banco de San Antonio yuav koom nrog Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary. Guanahacabibes National Park yuav koom nrog Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. Peb tus neeg uas tau ua haujlwm tsis tu ncua los ua qhov no tshwm sim yog Maritza Garcia ntawm tus Centro National de Cheeb Tsam Protegidas (Cuba), Billy Causey ntawm NOAA (USA), thiab Dan Whittle ntawm Environmental Defense Fund (EDF). 

Txhua tus neeg uas yog ib feem ntawm cov viv ncaus cov chaw ua si no tau ua kom pom tseeb tias nws yog qhov tshwm sim ntawm peb lub Trinational Initiative. Cov kev sib tham thiab kev taw qhia uas coj mus rau qhov kev sib tham binational no muaj lawv lub hauv paus hauv cov rooj sib tham ntxov tshaj plaws ntawm Trinational Initiative. Cov kev sib tham tau dhau los ua kev cai tom qab lub Kaum Ob Hlis 2014 normalization ntawm kev sib raug zoo. Daim ntawv cog lus raug cai ntawm ob lub tebchaws yuav raug kos npe ntawm no ntawm 10th Congress ntawm Marine Sciences (MarCuba) thaum Lub Kaum Ib Hlis 18, 2015.

Raws li peb tau pom nyob rau hauv yav dhau los piv txwv ntawm detente ntawm cov teb chaws txawv, nws yooj yim dua pib nrog cov cheeb tsam uas ob lub teb chaws muaj sib xws. Yog li, ib yam li Thawj Tswj Hwm Nixon tau pib nrog dej thiab huab cua kev koom tes nrog Soviet Union, US thiab Cuba kev koom tes pib nrog ib puag ncig, tseem nrog rau kev tsom mus rau kev txuag dej hiav txwv thiab cov chaw tiv thaiv marine (li no tus muam cov chaw ua si pom zoo). 

Kev sib txuas ntawm cov ecosystems thiab hom tsiaj hauv Caribbean yog qhov tseem ceeb thiab pom zoo, yog tias tseem tsis to taub ntau dua li qhov nws yuav yog. Qhov no yog qhov tseem ceeb dua nyob rau hauv saib qhov kev sib txuas ntawm Mexico, Asmeskas thiab Cuba. Nws yog ntev dhau los uas peb tswj hwm peb cov tib neeg kev sib raug zoo nrog ntug hiav txwv dej thiab dej hiav txwv hauv cheeb tsam no nrog qhov kev sib txuas hauv siab-ib txheej txheem uas pib nrog kev paub thiab kev nkag siab. Nws yog ib qho txheej txheem uas pib nrog cov rooj sib tham ntxov tshaj plaws ntawm thawj cov kws tshawb fawb thiab lwm tus uas tuaj koom ua ke ntawm thawj Trinational Initiative. Peb zoo siab tias lub rooj sib tham thib yim ntawm Trinational Initiative yuav muaj nyob rau hauv Teb Chaws Asmeskas Peb muaj ntau yam kev kawm los ntawm ib leeg, thiab peb tos ntsoov rau txoj haujlwm tom ntej.
