Ukuyila uThungelwano lokuqikelela i-Acidification yoLwandle

Ukulandela uLwandle kwiNkomfa yeHlabathi ye-CO2 ePhakamileyo eTasmania ekuqaleni kukaMeyi, siye sabamba iworkshop yesithathu yesayensi yeGlobal Ocean Acidization Observing Network (GOA-ON) kwiCSIRO Marine Laboratories eHobart. Intlanganiso ibibandakanya abantu abali-135 abavela kumazwe angama-37 abaye bahlanganisana ukuze babone indlela yokwandisa ukubekwa esweni kweasidi yolwandle kwihlabathi jikelele ukuze bayiqonde ngcono. Enkosi kwabanye abanikeli abakhethekileyo, i-Ocean Foundation ikwazile ukuxhasa ngezimali uhambo lwezazinzulu ezisuka kumazwe anesakhono esilinganiselweyo sokubeka iliso kule ntlanganiso.

Umfanekiso: UDkt Zulfigar Yasin unguprofesa we-Marine and Coral Reef Ecology, i-Biodiversity Marine kunye ne-Environmental Studies kwiYunivesithi yaseMalaysia; UMnu. Murugan Palanisamy yi-Biological Oceanographer yaseTamilnadu, eIndiya; UMark Spalding, uMongameli we-Ocean Foundation; UGqr Roshan Ramessur nguNjingalwazi oNxibeleleyo weKhemistri kwiYunivesithi yaseMauritius; KUNYE noMnu. Ophery Ilomo yiNzululwazi eyiNtloko kunye neSebe leKhemistri kwiYunivesithi yaseDar es Salaam eTanzania.I-GOA-ON luthungelwano lwehlabathi, oludityanisiweyo oluyilelwe ukujonga ubume be-asidi yolwandle kunye neempembelelo zayo kwi-ikholoji. Njengothungelwano lwehlabathi, i-GOA-ON ijongana nenyaniso yokuba i-asidi yolwandle yimeko yehlabathi eneziphumo zasekhaya kakhulu. Yenzelwe ukulinganisa ubume kunye nenkqubela-phambili yokwenziwa kweasidi yolwandle kulwandle oluvulekileyo, ulwandle oluselunxwemeni kunye neendawo zamachweba. Kwakhona sinethemba lokuba isinceda siqonde ngakumbi indlela i-acidification yolwandle echaphazela ngayo i-ecosystems yaselwandle, kwaye ekugqibeleni inikezela ngedatha eya kusivumela ukuba senze izixhobo zokubikezela kunye nokwenza izigqibo zokulawula. Nangona kunjalo, iindawo ezininzi zehlabathi, kuquka imimandla ethembele kakhulu kubuncwane baselwandle, ayinalwazi kunye namandla okubeka iliso. Ke ngoko, injongo yexeshana elifutshane kukugcwalisa izikhewu zokubeka iliso kwihlabathi liphela, kwaye itekhnoloji entsha ingasinceda ekwenzeni oko.

Ekugqibeleni, i-GOA-ON ifuna ukuba yinyaniso yehlabathi kwaye imele i-ecosystems ezininzi, ikwazi ukuqokelela kwaye ihlanganise idatha kwaye iguqulelwe ukuba iphendule kuzo zombini iimfuno zesayensi kunye nemigaqo-nkqubo. Le ntlanganiso eHobart yayikunceda iNethiwekhi ihambe ekuchazeni iimfuno zedatha yenethiwekhi, kunye nolawulo lwayo, kwisicwangciso sokuphunyezwa ngokupheleleyo kwenethiwekhi kunye neziphumo ezijoliswe kuzo. Imiba eza kujongwa ibe:

• Ukuhlaziya uluntu lwe-GOA-ON kwisimo se-GOA-ON kunye noqhagamshelwano kwezinye iinkqubo zehlabathi
• Ukwakha uluntu ukuba luphuhlise amaziko ommandla aza kuququzelela ukuxhotyiswa ngezakhono
• Ukuhlaziya iimfuno zebhayoloji kunye nemilinganiselo yempendulo yenkqubo yendalo
• Ukuxoxa ngoqhagamshelo lwemodeli, imingeni yoqwalaselo kunye namathuba
• Ukubonisa inkqubela phambili kwezobuchwepheshe, ulawulo lwedatha kunye neemveliso
• Ukufumana igalelo kwiimveliso zedatha kunye neemfuno zolwazi
• Ukufumana igalelo kwiimfuno zokuphunyezwa kwengingqi
• Ukusungula iNkqubo ye-GOA-ON Pier-2-Peer Mentorship

Abaqulunqi bemigaqo-nkqubo bayakhathala ngeenkonzo ze-ikhosistim ezisesichengeni sokwenziwa kweasidi yolwandle. Ukuqwalaselwa kotshintsho lwekhemistri kunye nokuphendula kwebhayoloji kusivumela ukuba sibonise utshintsho lwendalo kunye nesayensi yezentlalo ukuqikelela isiphumo soluntu:

Kwi-The Ocean Foundation, sisebenza ngokuyilayo ukukhulisa inkxaso-mali ukuze sakhe intatho-nxaxheba namandla amazwe asaphuhlayo kwiGlobal Ocean Acidification Observing Network ngokuxhasa ubuchwepheshe, uhambo, kunye nokwakhiwa kwezakhono. ‬‬‬‬‬

Lo mzamo waqaliswa kwiNkomfa ye-2014 "Ocean Ocean" eyayibanjwe liSebe le-US State, apho uNobhala kaRhulumente uJohn Kerry wathembisa ngenkxaso yokwakha izakhono zokujonga i-GOA-ON. Ebudeni baloo nkomfa, i-Ocean Foundation yamkele iwonga lokubamba i-Friends of GOA-ON, intsebenziswano engenzi nzuzo ejoliswe ekutsaleni inkxaso-mali ukuxhasa injongo ye-GOA-ON yokuzalisekisa iimfuno zenzululwazi kunye nomgaqo-nkqubo wokulungelelaniswa, ukuqokelela ulwazi kwihlabathi jikelele. kwi-acidification yolwandle kunye neempembelelo zayo kwi-ikholoji.

ICSIRO IiLebhu zaseLwandle eHobartUkuwa kokugqibela, iNzululwazi eyiNtloko ye-NOAA uRichard Spinrad kunye nomlingani wakhe wase-UK, u-Ian Boyd, kwi-Oct. Ngokukodwa, bacebise ukuthunyelwa kwezo teknoloji ziphuhliswe ngexesha lokhuphiswano lwe-15 i-Wendy Schmidt Ocean Health XPRIZE ukubonelela ngesiseko soqikelelo olomeleleyo kwiindawo eziselunxwemeni ezingenasakhono sokubeka iliso kwi-asidi yolwandle kunye nokunika ingxelo, ngakumbi kwi-Hemisphere yaseMazantsi.

Ngaloo ndlela sinethemba lokusebenzisa i-akhawunti yethu ye-Friends of GOA-ON ukunyusa ukubeka iliso kwi-acidification yolwandle kunye nomthamo wokunika ingxelo e-Afrika, kwiZiqithi zePasifiki, kwiLatin America, kwiCaribbean, nakwi-Arctic (iindawo apho kukho ulwazi olukhulu kunye nezithuba zedatha, kunye noluntu kunye amashishini axhomekeke kakhulu elwandle). Siya kukwenza oku ngokwakha amandla kwimimandla ehluphekileyo yedatha kwizazinzulu zasekhaya, ukuhambisa izixhobo zokubeka iliso, ukwakha nokugcina iqonga ledatha eliphakathi, ukucebisa izazinzulu, kunye nokuququzelela eminye imisebenzi yothungelwano.

I-Ocean Foundation's Abahlobo beGlobal Ocean Acidification Networking:

1. Kuqalwe ngenkqubo yokulinga eMozambiki ukubamba iindibano zocweyo zoqeqesho kwizazinzulu zasekuhlaleni ezili-15 ezivela kumazwe ali-10 ukuze zifunde indlela yokusebenza, ukuhambisa nokugcina izinzwa ze-asidi yolwandle kunye nokuqokelela, ukulawula, ukugcina kunye nokulayisha idatha ye-asidi yolwandle kumaqonga oqwalaselo ehlabathi.
2. Wahlonitshwa ukubonelela ngezibonelelo zokuhamba kwiworkshop yesayensi yesi-3 yeNethiwekhi kwiqela lezenzululwazi ezibandakanya: UGqr Roshan Ramessur nguNjingalwazi oNxibeleleyo weKhemistry kwiYunivesithi yaseMauritius; UMnu.

Luisa Saavedra Löwenberger, waseChile, yiNgcali yeBhayoloji yaseLwandle kwiYunivesithi yaseConcepción; KUNYE noGqr. Zulfigar Yasin uprofesa we-Marine and Coral Reef Ecology, i-Biodiversity Marine and Environmental Studies kwiYunivesithi yaseMalaysia.
3. Ungene kubambiswano kunye neSebe leLizwe lase-US (ngenkqubo yalo yokuHlanganisa, ukuZibandakanya, kunye nokuKhawulezisa ngeNtsebenziswano (LEAP)). Ubudlelwane phakathi kukarhulumente necandelo labucala buya kubonelela ngezixhobo zokuqalisa ukubeka esweni ukufakwa kweasidi yolwandle e-Afrika, ukomeleza iindibano zocweyo zokuxhobisa, ukuququzelela uqhakamshelwano kwiinzame zokubeka iliso kwihlabathi jikelele, kwaye kuphononongwe imeko yeshishini leetekhnoloji ezintsha zokuva iasidi yolwandle. Le ntsebenziswano ijonge ukuphumeza injongo kaNobhala yokwandisa ukhuselo lwehlabathi jikelele lwe-GOA-ON kunye nokuqeqesha abahloli kunye nabaphathi ukuze baqonde ngcono iimpembelelo ze-asidi yolwandle, ngakumbi e-Afrika, apho kukho uhlolo olulinganiselwe kakhulu lwe-asidi yolwandle.

Sonke sixhalabile malunga ne-asidi yolwandle-kwaye siyazi ukuba kufuneka siguqulele inkxalabo kwisenzo. I-GOA-ON yaqulunqwa ukudibanisa utshintsho lwekhemistri kulwandle kwiimpendulo zebhayoloji, ukuchonga ubungakanani kunye nokubonelela ukuqikelelwa kwexesha elifutshane kunye nexesha elide eliya kwazisa umgaqo-nkqubo. Siza kuqhubeka nokwakha i-GOA-ON enokwenzeka, esekelwe kubuchwepheshe, kwaye esinceda siqonde ukwenziwa kweasidi yolwandle apha ekhaya nakwihlabathi jikelele.
