Hoʻokomo ʻo Australia i nā mea ʻike maikaʻi o ka wai ma ka Great Barrier Reef

Ua hoʻokomo ke aupuni o Australia i nā mea ʻike ma nā ʻāpana o ka Great Barrier Reef i mea e hoʻopaʻa ai i ka maikaʻi o ka wai.

Uhi ka Great Barrier Reef ma kahi o 344,000 kilomika kuea o ka ʻāina ma waho o ke kahakai hikina ʻākau o Australia. Loaʻa iā ia nā haneli o nā mokupuni a me nā tausani o nā hale kūlohelohe, i ʻike ʻia he mau koʻa.

Ke ana nei nā mea ʻike i nā pae o ka lepo a me nā mea kalapona e kahe ana mai ka muliwai ʻo Fitzroy a i Keppel Bay ma ka mokuʻāina ʻo Queensland. Aia ka ʻāina ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o ka Great Barrier Reef. Hiki i kēlā mau mea ke hōʻino i nā mea ola kai.

ʻO ke keʻena aupuni o Australia ʻo Commonwealth Scientific ka mea nāna e mālama i ka papahana. Ua ʻōlelo ke keʻena e hoʻohana ana ka hana i nā mea ʻike a me ka ʻikepili ukali e ana i nā loli i ka maikaʻi o ka wai.

Ua ʻōlelo nā loea ua hoʻoweliweli ʻia ka maikaʻi o nā kahawai kahakai a me uka o Australia e ka mahana wela, ka noho kūlanakauhale ʻana, ka luku ʻāina, a me ka haumia.

ʻO Alex Held ke alakaʻi nei i ka papahana. Ua haʻi aku ʻo ia iā VOA hiki i nā sediments ke hoʻopilikia i ke ola o ke kai no ka mea hiki iā lākou ke ālai i ka lā mai ka papakū o ke kai. ʻO ka nele o ka lā hiki ke hōʻeha i ka ulu ʻana o nā mea kanu kai a me nā meaola ʻē aʻe. Hiki i nā sediments ke noho ma luna o nā ʻāpapa koʻa, e hoʻopilikia ana i ke ola o ke kai ma laila.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Held e hoʻohana ʻia nā mea ʻike a me nā satelite e ana i ka pono o nā papahana i manaʻo ʻia e hōʻemi i ke kahe ʻana o ka lepo o ka muliwai i loko o ke kai.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Held ua hoʻokele mua ke aupuni o ʻAukekulelia i kekahi mau papahana e pili ana i ka hōʻemi ʻana i nā hopena o nā sediments ma ke ola kai. ʻO kēia mau mea e komo pū me nā hoʻoikaika ʻana e mālama i nā mea kanu e ulu ana ma nā kahawai a me nā kino wai ʻē aʻe e kōkua i ka pale ʻana i nā sediments.

Ua ʻōlelo aʻo aku nā mea mālama i ke kaiapuni e kū nei ka Great Barrier Reef i kekahi mau hoʻoweliweli. ʻO kēia mau mea e pili ana i ka loli o ke aniau, ka haumia a me ka kahe ʻana o nā huahana mahiʻai. ʻO ke koʻa - kahi e holo ana ma kahi o 2,300 kilomita - ua kau ʻia ma ka Papa Inoa Hoʻoilina Honua o nā Aupuni Hui Pū ʻIa mai ka makahiki 1981.

Loaʻa iā mākou nā ʻano mea ʻike wai like ʻole, i hoʻohana nui ʻia i ka ʻoihana, ka aquaculture, ka palekana o ke kaiapuni a me nā kahua ʻē aʻe.
