iDiplomacy yeNzululwazi yoLwandle

“YiCaribbean enkulu. Kwaye yiCaribbean edityaniswe kakhulu. Ngenxa yemisinga yolwandle, ilizwe ngalinye lixhomekeke kwelinye… ukutshintsha kwemozulu, ukunyuka komphakamo wolwandle, ukhenketho olukhulu, ukuloba ngokugqithisileyo, umgangatho wamanzi. Ziingxaki ezifanayo onke amazwe ajongene nazo xa ehlangene. Kwaye onke loo mazwe akanazo zonke izisombululo. Ngoko ngokusebenza kunye, sabelana ngezibonelelo. Sabelana ngamava.”

UFERNANDO BRETOS | IGOSA LENKQUBO, TOF

Sithanda ukulungelelanisa izinto njengoluntu. Sizoba imigca karhulumente, senze izithili, kwaye sigcine imida yezopolitiko. Kodwa ulwandle aluyihoyi nayiphi na imigca esiyizoba emephini. Ngaphesheya kwe-71% yomphezulu womhlaba elulwandle lwethu, izilwanyana ziwela imigca yolawulo, kwaye iinkqubo zethu zolwandle zingaphaya kwemida ngokwendalo.  

Imihlaba eyabelana ngamanzi ikwachatshazelwa yimiba efanayo nekwabelwana ngayo kunye neemeko zokusingqongileyo, ezifana neentyantyambo ze-algal, izaqhwithi zetropikhi, ungcoliseko, nokunye. Kuphela kusengqiqweni ukuba amazwe angabamelwane kunye noorhulumente basebenzisane ukuze bafikelele usukelo olufanayo.

Singaseka ukuthembana kwaye sigcine ubudlelwane xa sisabelana ngezimvo kunye nezixhobo kulwandlekazi. Iinzame zentsebenziswano zibalulekile kwinzululwazi yolwandle, equka i-ikholoji, ukujonga ulwandle, ikhemistri, ijoloji, kunye nokuloba. Ngelixa inani lentlanzi lilawulwa yimida yelizwe, iintlobo zentlanzi zihamba rhoqo kwaye zinqumla imimandla yelizwe ngokusekelwe kwiimfuno zokufumana ukutya okanye ukuzala. Apho ilizwe lisenokungabi nabuchule obuthile, elinye ilizwe linokunceda ekuxhaseni loo msantsa.

Yintoni i-Ocean Science Diplomacy?

"Idiplomacy yesayensi yolwandle" luqheliselo olunamacala amaninzi olunokuthi lwenzeke kwiindlela ezimbini ezihambelanayo. 

Intsebenziswano kwisayensi ukuya kwisayensi

Oosonzululwazi banokudibana ngeeprojekthi zophando ezidibeneyo zeminyaka emininzi ukufumana izisombululo kwiingxaki ezinkulu zolwandle. Ukusebenzisa izixhobo zokusebenza kunye nobuchule bokudibanisa phakathi kwamazwe amabini kwenza izicwangciso zophando zibe namandla ngakumbi kwaye zenza nzulu ubudlelwane bobuchwephesha obuhlala amashumi eminyaka.

Inzululwazi yokutshintsha umgaqo-nkqubo

Ngokusebenzisa idatha entsha kunye nolwazi oluphuhliswe ngokubambisana kwezesayensi, izazinzulu ziyakwazi ukufundisa abenzi bezigqibo malunga nemeko yokutshintsha kwamanxweme - kwaye babakhuthaze ukuba ekugqibeleni batshintshe imigaqo-nkqubo yekamva elizinzileyo.

Xa uphando lwenzululwazi olusulungekileyo luyinjongo eqhelekileyo, idiplomacy yesayensi yolwandle inokunceda ukwakha ubudlelwane obuhlala ixesha elide kunye nokwandisa ulwazi lwehlabathi malunga nemiba yolwandle esichaphazela sonke.

Umsebenzi wethu

Iqela lethu linamasiko amaninzi, iilwimi ezimbini, kwaye liyabuqonda uvakalelo lobume belizwe apho sisebenza khona.

UPhando lwezeNzululwazi ngeNtsebenziswano

Asikwazi ukukhusela into esingayiqondiyo.

Sikhokela ngophando lwezenzululwazi kwaye sikhuthaza ulungelelwaniso olungakhethi cala ukujongana nezoyikiso ezifanayo kunye nokukhusela izixhobo ekwabelwana ngazo. Inzululwazi yindawo engathathi hlangothi ekhuthaza intsebenziswano eqhubekayo phakathi kwamazwe. Umsebenzi wethu uzama ukuqinisekisa ilizwi elilinganayo kumazwe angamelwanga kangako kunye neenzululwazi. Ngokujongana ngqo nenzululwazi yobukoloniyali, kunye nokuqinisekisa ukuba inzululwazi iqhutywa ngembeko nangokuphindaphindiweyo, idatha enesiphumo igcinwa kumazwe apho uphando lwenziwa khona kwaye iziphumo zizuzisa loo mazwe afanayo. Sikholelwa ukuba inzululwazi kufuneka yenziwe kwaye ilawulwe ngamazwe abamba iqhaza. Apho oko kungenakwenzeka, kufuneka sigxininise ekwakheni eso sikhundla. Amagqabantshintshi aquka:

Inyathelo leZiqu-zintathu

Sidibanisa amagcisa kulo lonke iGulf of Mexico kunye neWestern Caribbean Region ukwabelana ngolwazi kunye nokulungelelanisa ulondolozo lweentlobo ezifudukayo eziwela imida. Eli nyathelo lisebenza njengeqonga elingathathi hlangothi kwizazinzulu, amagosa karhulumente, kunye nezinye iingcaphephe ikakhulu ezivela eMexico, eCuba, nase-United States ukuba zitshate ikhosi yenzululwazi yolwandle ngaphandle kombono wezopolitiko.

Uphando lweCoral eCuba

Ukulandela amashumi amabini eminyaka yentsebenziswano, siye saxhasa iqela lezazinzulu zaseCuba ezisuka kwiDyunivesithi yaseHavana ukuba ziqhube ubalo olubonakalayo lwe-elkhorn coral ukuvavanya impilo kunye nokuxinana kweekorale, ukugqunywa kwe-substrate, kunye nobukho beentlanzi kunye noluntu oluzingelayo. Ukwazi imeko yempilo yee-ridges kunye nemilinganiselo yazo ye-ecological kuya kwenza ukuba kube lula ukucebisa amanyathelo olawulo kunye nokugcinwa okuya kuba negalelo ekukhuseleni kwabo kwixesha elizayo.

Intsebenziswano yophando lweCoral phakathi kweCuba kunye neDominican Republic

Sidibanise izazinzulu ezivela eCuba kunye neRiphabhlikhi yaseDominican ukuze zifunde omnye komnye kwaye zisebenzisane kubuchule bokubuyisela iikorale kwindawo yasendle. Olu tshintshiselwano lwalujongwe njengentsebenziswano esemazantsi-emzantsi, apho amazwe amabini asakhasayo esabelanayo kwaye ekhula kunye ukuze enze isigqibo ngekamva lawo lokusingqongileyo.

I-Acidification yoLwandle kunye neGulf of Guinea

Ukwenziwa kweasidi yolwandle ngumba wehlabathi jikelele kunye neepateni zasekhaya kunye neziphumo. Intsebenziswano yommandla ngundoqo ekuqondeni ukuba i-asidi yolwandle iyichaphazela njani i-ikhosistim kunye neentlobo kunye nokunyuka kwesicwangciso esiyimpumelelo sokunciphisa nokuziqhelanisa. I-TOF ixhasa intsebenziswano yengingqi kwiGulf of Guinea ngokusebenzisa iSakhiwo soKwakha kwi-Ocean Acidification Monitoring kwiprojekthi yeGulf of Guinea (BIOTTA), esebenza eBenin, eCameroon, eCôte d'Ivoire, eGhana naseNigeria. Ngothelelwano neendawo ekugxilwe kuzo ezisuka kwilizwe ngalinye elimelweyo, i-TOF ibonelele ngemephu yendlela yothethathethwano nabachaphazelekayo kunye novavanyo lwezibonelelo kunye neemfuno zophando lwe-asidi yolwandle kunye nokubeka iliso. Ukongeza, i-TOF ibonelela ngenkxaso-mali ebalulekileyo yokuthengwa kwezixhobo ukwenzela ukuba kubekwe iliso kwingingqi.

ULondolozo lwaseLwandle kunye noMgaqo-nkqubo

Umsebenzi wethu woLondolozo lwaseLwandle kunye noMgaqo-nkqubo uquka ulondolozo lweentlobo zezilwanyana ezifudukayo elwandle, ulawulo lwemimandla ekhuselweyo yaselwandle, kunye nezicwangciso-nkqubo zokugalelwa kweasidi yolwandle. Amagqabantshintshi aquka:

IsiVumelwano seeNdawo eziNgcwele phakathi kweCuba ne-United States 

I-Ocean Foundation iye yakha iibhulorho kwiindawo ezifana neCuba ukususela ngo-1998, kwaye singomnye wabokuqala kunye nabade baqhuba imisebenzi engenzi nzuzo e-US esebenza kwelo lizwe. Ubukho bezenzululwazi zikaRhulumente ezivela eCuba nase-US zikhokelele kwisivumelwano seendawo ezingcwele zoodade phakathi kwala mazwe mabini ngonyaka ka-2015. kunye nokwabelana ngolwazi malunga nendlela yokuvavanya iindawo zaselwandle ezikhuselweyo.

IGulf of Mexico Marine Network ekhuselweyo (RedGolfo)

Ukwakha isantya esisuka kwiSivumelwano seeNdawo zeNdawo eziKhuselekileyo, sidale i-Gulf of Mexico Marine Protected Area Network, okanye iRedGolfo, ngo-2017 xa iMexico yajoyina inyathelo lengingqi. I-RedGolfo ibonelela ngeqonga labaphathi beendawo ezikhuselweyo zolwandle abavela eCuba, eMexico, nase-US ukwabelana ngedatha, ulwazi kunye nezifundo ezifundiweyo ukulungiselela ngcono kunye nokusabela kwiinguqu kunye nezoyikiso ummandla onokujamelana nawo.

I-Acidification yoLwandle kunye ne-Wider Caribbean 

I-Ocean acidification ngumba odlula ezopolitiko njengoko uchaphazela onke amazwe nokuba ungakanani ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni yelizwe. NgoDisemba ka-2018, sifumene inkxaso ngamxhelo mnye kwi IProtokholi yeNgqungquthela yaseCartagena emalunga neMimandla eKhuselwe ngokuKhethekileyo kunye neZilwanyana zasendle intlanganiso yesisombululo sokujongana ne-asidi yolwandle njengenkxalabo yengingqi ye-Wider Caribbean. Ngoku sisebenza noorhulumente kunye noosonzululwazi kulo lonke elaseCaribbean ukuphumeza umgaqo-nkqubo welizwe kunye nengingqi kunye neenkqubo zenzululwazi ukujongana ne-asidi yolwandle.

I-Acidification yoLwandle kunye neMexico 

Siqeqesha abezomthetho kwizihloko eziphambili ezichaphazela amanxweme kunye nolwandle lwaseMexico, okukhokelela kumathuba okuqulunqa imithetho ehlaziyiweyo. Ngo-2019, samenywa ukuba ukubonelela ngenkqubo yemfundo kwiNdlu yeeNgwevu zaseMexico malunga nokutshintsha kwekhemistri yolwandle, phakathi kwezinye izihloko. Oku kwavula unxibelelwano malunga nomgaqo-nkqubo kunye nokucwangciswa kohlengahlengiso lwe-asidi yolwandle kunye nokubaluleka kombindi wedatha wesizwe ukuququzelela ukuthathwa kwezigqibo.

Uthungelwano lweMozulu yeZiqithi eziSomeleleyo 

I-TOF ibamba ngokubambisana ne-Global Island Partnership (GLISPA) i-Climate Strong Islands Network, ukukhuthaza imigaqo-nkqubo efanelekileyo exhasa iziqithi kunye nokunceda uluntu lwazo luphendule kwintlekele yemozulu ngendlela esebenzayo.
