UGqr. Kaitlyn Lowder
UGqr. Kaitlyn Lowder uxhasa i-Ocean Science Equity Initiative kunye ne-TOF. Njengesazi sebhayoloji yaselwandle, wenze uphando ngeziphumo ze-ocean acidification (OA) kunye nokufudumala kolwandle (OW) kwiicrustaceans ezibalulekileyo kwezoqoqosho. Umsebenzi wakhe neCalifornia spiny lobster (Ukuphazamiseka kwePanulirus) iphonononge indlela ukhuseleko lwamarhamncwa olwenziwa yi-exoskeleton-imisebenzi efana nezixhobo zokulwa nohlaselo, isixhobo sokutyhalela kude izoyikiso, okanye ifestile ukwenza lula ukungafihli-inokuchatshazelwa yi-OA kunye ne-OW. Uphinde wavavanya ububanzi be-OA kunye nophando lwe-OW kwiintlobo ze-Pacific ezitshisayo kunye ne-Indo-Pacific kumxholo wokuphuhlisa iiparitha zobuntununtunu ukwazisa imodeli ye-ecosystem ye-Hawaii Atlantis.
Ngaphandle kwelebhu, uKaitlyn usebenze ukwabelana ngendlela ulwandle oluchaphazela ngayo kwaye luchaphazeleka ngokutshintsha kwemozulu kubo bobabini abenzi bomgaqo-nkqubo kunye noluntu. Uye wanikela iintetho kunye nemiboniso yezandla kumalungu angaphezu kwe-1,000 oluntu lwakhe ngotyelelo lweklasi ye-K-12 kunye neentetho zesidlangalala. Le yinxalenye yeenzame zakhe zokukhuthaza ulondolozo nokusetyenziswa ngokuzinzileyo kobutyebi bolwandle kunye nokubandakanya isizukulwana esilandelayo soosonzululwazi, abavelisi bezinto ezintsha, kunye namalungu oluntu olulwazi ngolwandle. Ukudibanisa abenzi bomgaqo-nkqubo kunye nesayensi yemozulu yolwandle, uKaitlyn waya kwi-COP21 eParis naseCOP23 eJamani, apho wathetha nabathunywa kwi-UC Revelle delegation booth, wabelane ngophando lwe-OA e-US Pavilion, kwaye wayekhokele inkomfa yabezindaba malunga nokufaneleka kwe-OA. ukuya kwiiNjongo zoPhuhliso oluZinzileyo ze-UN (SDGs).
Njengomlingane we-2020 Knauss umgaqo-nkqubo wezolwandle kwi-Ofisi yeMisebenzi yeZizwe ngeZizwe ye-NOAA yoPhando, uKaitlyn waxhasa iinjongo zomgaqo-nkqubo wangaphandle wase-US kwisayensi kunye nobuchwepheshe, kubandakanywa namalungiselelo e-UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030).
UKaitlyn ufumene iBS yakhe kwiBiology kunye neBA kwisiNgesi kwiYunivesithi yaseWestern Washington kunye neMS kwiBiological Oceanography kunye nePh.D. kwiBhayoloji yaseLwandle kunye nobuNgcali boPhando lweNdalo yeNdalo ephuma kwiScripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego. Ulilungu le HLALA UPHOLE kubazukulwana Ibhunga leNgcebiso.

UPhando lwe-Acidification yoLwandle lokuZinza: Ukuyila iNtsebenziswano yeHlabathi jikelele kwiZikali zeNdawo
U-Alexis Valauri-Orton kunye noGqr. Kaitlyn Lowder babhale inqaku lejenali kwi-OA ye-UN Decade Programme.
Ukujonga emva ukuqhubela Phambili: Inkomfa ye-UN yoLwandle ye-2022
Emva kweNkomfa ye-UN yoLwandle lwe-2022, sinethemba lokubona inkqubela phambili eqhubekayo ekuqinisekiseni ukuba amazwi abo banamandla okwenza utshintsho, kunye nabo bachaphazelekayo kukutshintsha kwemozulu kunye nokutshatyalaliswa kolwandle, bavakele.
Ukujongwa ngasemva kwiNtlanganiso yeSayensi yoLwandle ngo-2022
I-COVID-19 izise intaphane yokungaqiniseki. INtlanganiso yeeSayensi zoLwandle yalo nyaka ibimalunga nokuhlangana kunye ngeenjongo ezifanayo nangona eli xesha lingazinzanga.
Ithetha ntoni iBhunga elitsha leMozulu le-NOAA kuLwandle lwethu
Sichulumancile ukuvuyisana neNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ngeBhunga elitsha leMozulu ukuzisa indlela karhulumente ehlangeneyo ukusabela kutshintsho lwemozulu yethu.
