Coral Sayenzi munguva yedenda

Denda reCCIDID-19 rakaisa kuomerwa pane zvese zvaungafungidzirwe zviitiko zvevanhu. Tsvagiridzo yemugungwa yakaderedzwa kupfuura chero imwe, sezvo sainzi yepasi pemvura inoda kufamba, kuronga, uye kuswedera pedyo mumidziyo yekutsvagisa kuti isvike kunzvimbo dzekufunda. Muna Ndira 2021, Center for Marine Research yeYunivhesiti yeHavana (“CIM-UH”) yakashora zvipingamupinyi zvese nekutanga nhamburiko yavo yemakumi maviri emakore yekudzidza elkhorn coral panzvimbo mbiri dziri pamhenderekedzo yeHavana: Rincón de Guanabo neBaracoa. Rwendo urwu ruchangoburwa rwakaitwa kuburikidza nechido uye nehungwaru, uye kutarisa kusimuka-kwakavakirwa-pasi kunzvimbo dzemakorari ekutsvagisa, izvo zvinogona kuitwa nemaune uye nekuona nzvimbo yakakodzera yesainzi. Kanda muchokwadi chekuti coronavirus haigone kuparadzirwa pasi pemvura!

Muchirongwa ichi chese, boka revasayendisiti vekuCuba rinotungamirwa naDr. Patricia Gonzalez weYunivhesiti yeHavana vachaita census yekuona kwemavara elkhorn munzvimbo idzi mbiri dziri kumahombekombe eHavana uye kuongorora hutano uye kuwanda kwemakorari, kuvharwa kwe substrate, uye. kuvapo kwenharaunda dzehove nemhuka dzinodya dzimwe mhuka. Chirongwa ichi chinotsigirwa neThe Ocean Foundation nemari inobva kuna Paul M. Angell Family Foundation.

Reef ridges inzvimbo dzinokosha dzekugara mukati mecoral reef. Iyi mitsetse inokonzera hutatu-dimensionality yereef, inopa pekugara kune zvipenyu zvose zvekutengesa zvakadai sehove uye lobster, uye inodzivirira mahombekombe kubva kumamiriro ekunze akaipisisa akadai semadutu nemadutu. MuHavana, Cuba, Rincón de Guanabo neBaracoa mitsetse miviri yereef kumucheto kweguta, uye Rincón de Guanabo inzvimbo yakachengetedzwa ine chikamu cheOutsificent Natural Landscape. Kuziva mamiriro ehutano hwema ridge uye maitiro avo ecological kuchaita kuti zvikwanise kukurudzira manejimendi nekuchengetedza matanho anozobatsira mukuchengetedzwa kwavo kweramangwana.

ne chinangwa chikuru che kuongorora hutano hwemareef crests eRincon de Guanabo neBaracoa, ongororo yakaitwa muna Ndira, Kukadzi, naKurume neboka revasayendisiti vekuCuba rinotungamirirwa naDr. Gonzalez. Zvinangwa zvetsvakiridzo iyi zvinotevera:

1. Kuongorora kuwanda, hutano uye saizi kuumbwa kwe A. palmata (elkhorn coral), A. agaricites uye P. astreoides.
2. Kufungidzira density, saizi kuumbwa, nhanho (yechidiki kana mukuru), aggregation uye albinism mu D. antillarum (urchin refu-yakaita nhema yakasangana nekufa kukuru muCaribbean muma1980 uye ndeimwe yezvinodya zvirimwa zvemureef).
3. Kuongorora maumbirwo ezvipenyu, danho rekukura, uye hunhu hwehove dzinodya zvinomera, uye kufungidzira saizi yeimwe neimwe yezvikomo zvakasarudzwa.
4. Ongorora kuvharwa kwe substrate kune yega yega yakasarudzwa mitsetse.
5. Ongorora kushata kwe substrate kune yega yega yakasarudzwa mitsetse.

Zviteshi zvitanhatu zvekuongorora zvakamiswa pareef yega yega kuti zviverengere kusiyanisa kwechisikigo kweringi rega rega. Mhedzisiro yetsvagurudzo iyi ichabatsira kuPhD thesis yaAmanda Ramos, pamwe nedzidziso dzaTenzi dzaPatricia Vicente naGabriela Aguilera, uye dhipuroma thesis yaJennifer Suarez naMelisa Rodriguez. Ongororo idzi dzakaitwa munguva yechando uye zvichave zvakakosha kuzvidzokorora muzhizha nekuda kwekuchinja kwenharaunda dzemugungwa uye hutano hwemakorari hunochinja pakati pemwaka.

Kuziva mamiriro ehutano hwema ridge uye maitiro avo ecological kuchaita kuti zvikwanise kukurudzira manejimendi nekuchengetedza matanho anozobatsira mukuchengetedzwa kwavo kweramangwana.

Nekuda kwedenda reCCIDID-19, The Ocean Foundation zvinosuwisa haina kukwanisa kujoina nzendo idzi uye kutsigira tsvakiridzo yemasayendisiti aya pamunhu, asi isu tinotarisira kufambira mberi kwebasa ravo uye kudzidza kurudziro yavo yematanho ekuchengetedza. kujoina vamwe vedu muCuba post-denda. Iyo Ocean Foundation iri kutungamira zvakare kuedza kukuru kudzidza uye kudzoreredza elkhorn uye staghorn makorari paJardines de la Reina National Park, iyo yakakura nzvimbo yakachengetedzwa yemugungwa muCaribbean. Nehurombo, chirongwa ichi chakamira sezvo COVID-19 yakadzivirira masayendisiti muCuba kushanda pamwechete pamidziyo yekutsvagisa.

The Ocean Foundation neCIM-UH vakabatirana kweanopfuura makumi maviri emakore kunyangwe pakaoma hukama hwekudyidzana pakati peCuba neUS. Mune mweya wesainzi diplomacy, masangano edu ekutsvagisa anonzwisisa kuti gungwa harizive miganhu uye kudzidza nzvimbo dzemugungwa munyika mbiri idzi kwakakosha pakudzivirira kwavo pamwe chete. Chirongwa ichi chiri kuunganidza masayendisiti kubva kunyika mbiri idzi kuti vashande pamwe chete uye kutsvaga mhinduro kune kutyisidzira kwakafanana kwatinosangana nako kunosanganisira chirwere checoral uye bleaching kubva mukushanduka kwemamiriro ekunze, kubata hove, uye kushanya.
