Kwatave iko zvino neCorals of the World

Tsamba kubva kune TOF Grantee: Kwatiri iko zvino neCorals of the World

NaCharlie Veron 

Corals of the World chirongwa chakatanga nenhamburiko yemakore mashanu kubatanidza yakazova enisaikoropidhiya ine mavhoriyamu matatu ine mifananidzo yairatidza kusiyana-siyana kwenyika yose yemakorari, yakabudiswa muna 3. Asi basa guru iroro rakanga richingova mavambo—zviri pachena. isu taida inopindirana pa-line, inogadziridzwa, yakavhurika-yekupinda sisitimu yaisanganisira zvinhu zviviri zvikuru: Coral Geographic uye Coral Id.

Vhiki rino tinogona kuzivisa nekukunda kuti Coral Geographic, chimwe chezvikamu zviviri zvikuru zveCorals of the World, iri kusimuka uye ichimhanya kunyangwe (hurombo) inofanirwa kuchengetedzwa password kusvika yagadzirira kutanga. Yakagadzirirwa kupa vashandisi chishandiso chitsva kuti vazive zvese nezve makorari aripi. Mukuita izvi zvinodarika zvese zvinotarisirwa pakutanga sezvo zvichibvumira vashandisi kusarudza nzvimbo dzakasiyana dzepasi, kusanganisa kana kusiyanisa, nekukasika kugadzira mepu uye kunyora marudzi ekuita kudaro. Injiniya yewebhusaiti inosanganisirwa, ichimhanya papuratifomu yeGoogle Earth, yatora anopfuura gore kugadzira, asi yanga iri nguva yakashandiswa zvakanaka.

Chimwe chikamu chikuru, Coral ID inovimba ichave shoma yekunetsa kwehunyanzvi. Ichapa marudzi ese evashandisi kuwana nekukurumidza ruzivo nezve makorari, achibatsirwa netsananguro dziri nyore kuverenga uye dzakatenderedza 8000 mafoto. Mapeji emhando akagadzirwa uye isu pakupedzisira tine zvakawanda zvezvikamu zvinosanganisira yakakura macomputer inoverengeka data mafaira mumatunhu ekugadzirira. Iyo prototype inoshanda zvakanaka - inongoda kugadziridzwa kwakanaka uye kubatanidza neCoral Geographic uye zvinopesana. Isu tinoronga kuwedzera kiyi yemagetsi (yakagadziridzwa webhusaiti vhezheni yekare Coral ID CD-ROM) kune izvi, asi izvo zviri pabackburner parizvino.

Pave paine zvinhu zviviri zvinononotsa. Chekutanga ndechekuti isu takatoziva nekunonoka kuti tinoda kuburitsa mhedzisiro yebasa redu mumapepanhau esainzi akaongororwa nevezera rake pamberi pekuburitswa kwewebhusaiti, zvikasadaro mumwe munhu achatiitira izvi (ndiyo nzira iri kuenda nesainzi) . Mhedziso yekoral taxonomy ichangobva kugamuchirwa neZoological Journal yeLinnean Society. Chinyorwa chechipiri chikuru checoral biogeography chiri kugadzirirwa izvozvi. Migumisiro yacho inofadza. Hupenyu hwese hwebasa hwakapinda mune izvi uye ikozvino kwenguva yekutanga isu tinokwanisa kudhonza zvese pamwe chete. Izvi zvinyorwa zvichave zvakare pawebhusaiti zvichibvumira vashandisi kusvetukira pakati pehupamhi hwepamusoro uye ruzivo rwakanaka. Ini ndinotenda zvese izvi zvichave nyika kutanga, yehupenyu hwemugungwa.

Kunonoka kwechipiri kunonetsa. Isu taizobatanidza kuongororwa kwekusagadzikana kwezvipenyu mukuburitswa kwekutanga. Zvadaro, taita ongororo yehuwandu hwe data yatinayo, isu tave kuronga kuvaka module yechitatu, Coral Enquirer, iyo inoenda kupfuura kuongororwa kwekusagadzikana. Kana tikakwanisa kupa mari nekuinjiniya (uye izvi zvichange zvichinetsa pane zvese zviri zviviri), izvi zvinopa mhinduro dzesainzi kune chero mubvunzo wekuchengetedza ungafungidzirwe. Inoshuvira zvikuru, saka haizoverengerwe mukuburitswa kwekutanga kweCorals of the World iyo yatiri kuronga kutanga kwegore rinouya.

Ndichange ndichikuzivisai. Iwe haugone kufungidzira kuti tinoonga sei nerutsigiro (rutsigiro rwekununura) rwatakagamuchira: zvese izvi zvingadai zvakapunzikira mukukanganwa pasina izvozvo.
