Ka makani o ka hoʻololi: UMB hoʻokomo i ka liʻiliʻi Weather Station

Ke kāhea nei ka wanana hoʻonui i kahi kikowaena liʻiliʻi ma ke Kulanui o Maryland, Baltimore (UMB), e lawe kokoke ana i ka ʻikepili o ke kūlanakauhale i ka home.

Ua hana pū ka Office of Sustainability o UMB me Operations and Maintenance no ka hoʻokomo ʻana i kahi keʻena liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi ma ka papa ʻeono o ka hale ʻōmaʻomaʻo o Health Sciences Research Facility III (HSRF III) i Nowemapa. E lawe ana kēia kahua hoʻokele i nā ana me ka mahana, ka haʻahaʻa, ka pāhawewe lā, UV, ka makani makani, a me ka wikiwiki o ka makani, a me nā helu ʻikepili ʻē aʻe.

Ua ʻimi mua ka Office of Sustainability i ka manaʻo o kahi kahua hoʻokele o ka pā kula ma hope o ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi palapala moʻolelo Tree Equity e hōʻike ana i nā pono ʻole i loaʻa i ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka canopy lāʻau ma Baltimore. Ke alakaʻi nei kēia kūlike ʻole i ka hopena mokupuni wela o ke kūlanakauhale, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻoi aku ka wela o nā wahi me nā kumu lāʻau liʻiliʻi a no laila ua ʻoi aku ka wela ma mua o ko lākou mau hoa i uhi ʻia.

I ka nānā 'ana i ke aniau no kekahi kūlanakauhale, 'o ka 'ikepili i hō'ike 'ia he mau heluhelu ma'amau ia mai nā kahua ka'a ma ke kahua mokulele kokoke loa. No Baltimore, lawe ʻia kēia mau heluhelu ma Baltimore-Washington International (BWI) Thurgood Marshall Airport, kahi kokoke i 10 mile mai ke kahua kula o UMB. ʻO ka hoʻokomo ʻana i kahi kahua hoʻokele o ka pā kula e hiki ai iā UMB ke kiʻi i ka ʻikepili kūloko e pili ana i ka mahana a hiki ke kōkua i ka hōʻike ʻana i nā hopena o ka hopena o ka mokupuni wela o ke kūlanakauhale ma ka pā kula waena.

ʻO nā heluhelu i lawe ʻia mai ke kahua ʻāina e kōkua pū i ka hana a nā keʻena ʻē aʻe ma UMB, me ka Office of Emergency Management (OEM) a me Environmental Services (EVS) i ka pane ʻana i nā hanana ʻino. Hāʻawi ka pahupaʻikiʻi i kahi hānai ola o ke aniau ma ka pā kula o UMB a me kahi kūlana kiʻekiʻe no nā mākaʻi UMB a me nā hana nānā ʻana o ka Public Safety.

"Ua nānā ka poʻe ma UMB i kahi keʻena o ka wā ma mua, akā hauʻoli wau i hiki iā mākou ke hoʻololi i kēia moeʻuhane i ʻoiaʻiʻo," wahi a Angela Ober, ka loea kiʻekiʻe o ka Office of Sustainability. "ʻAʻole e pōmaikaʻi kēia mau ʻikepili i kā mākou keʻena, akā pūʻulu pū kekahi ma ka pā kula e like me Emergency Management, Environmental Services, Operations and Maintenance, Public and Occupational Health, Public Safety, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe.
