Ukudala ulwazi oluthuthukisiwe lwesimo sezulu kanye nezinsizakalo eVanuatu kubangela izinselele eziyingqayizivele zokuhlela.
U-Andrew Harper usebenze njengochwepheshe besimo sezulu be-NIWA basePacific iminyaka engaphezu kwe-15 futhi uyazi ukuthi yini okufanele ayilindele lapho esebenza esifundeni.
Izinhlelo kungenzeka zihlanganise izikhwama zikasimende ezingu-17, amapayipi angu-42 wamamitha e-PVC, amamitha angu-80 wempahla yokubiya eqinile namathuluzi azolethwa kusenesikhathi ukuze kwakhiwe, esho. “Kodwa lelo cebo laphonswa ngewindi ngesikhathi isikebhe esithwala impahla singasuki ethekwini ngenxa yesiphepho ebesidlula.
“Izinto zokuhamba zasendaweni ngokuvamile zilinganiselwe, ngakho uma ungathola imoto eqashwayo, kuhle kakhulu. Eziqhingini ezincane zaseVanuatu, indawo yokuhlala, izindiza kanye nokudla kudinga ukheshi, futhi lokhu akuyona inkinga kuze kube yilapho uqaphela ukuthi kunezindawo eziningana lapho abantu bangaphandle bengathola khona ukheshi. ngaphandle kokubuyela ezweni elikhulu.”
Kuhlanganiswe nobunzima bolimi, izinto ongase uzithathe kalula e-New Zealand zingabonakala ziyinselele engenakunqobeka e-Pacific.
Zonke lezi zinselelo bekufanele kubhekwane nazo ngenkathi i-NIWA iqala ukufaka iziteshi zesimo sezulu ezizenzakalelayo (AWS) kulo lonke elaseVanuatu ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka. Lezi zinselelo zisho ukuthi umsebenzi ubungeke uphumelele ngaphandle kolwazi lwendawo lozakwethu wephrojekthi, uMnyango Wezemvelo Nezingozi Zomhlaba iVanuatu (VMGD).
U-Andrew Harper kanye nozakwabo uMarty Flanagan basebenze kanye nochwepheshe abayisithupha be-VMGD kanye nethimba elincane lamadoda endawo abenza umsebenzi wezandla. U-Andrew kanye no-Marty bangamela imininingwane yezobuchwepheshe futhi baqeqeshe futhi bafundise abasebenzi be-VMGD ukuze bakwazi ukusebenza ngokuzimele kumaphrojekthi azayo.
Iziteshi eziyisithupha sezifakiwe, ezintathu sezithunyelwe futhi zizofakwa ngoSepthemba. Kuhlelelwe ezinye eziyisithupha, mhlawumbe ngonyaka ozayo.
Abasebenzi bezobuchwepheshe be-NIWA banganikeza ukusekelwa okuqhubekayo uma kudingeka, kodwa umqondo oyisisekelo ngemuva kwalo msebenzi eVanuatu nomsebenzi omningi we-NIWA ePacific uwukwenza izinhlangano zendawo ezweni ngalinye zikwazi ukunakekela imishini yazo futhi zisekele imisebenzi yazo.
Inethiwekhi ye-AWS izohamba cishe amakhilomitha ayi-1,000 ukusuka e-Aneityum eningizimu kuya eVanua Lava enyakatho.
I-AWS ngayinye ifakwe amathuluzi anembayo akala isivinini somoya nendlela, izinga lokushisa lomoya nomhlaba, umfutho womoya, umswakama, imvula nemisebe yelanga. Wonke amathuluzi afakwe ngendlela elawulwa ngokuqinile ngokuhambisana namazinga nezinqubo ze-World Meteorological Organization ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuvumelana ekubikeni.
Idatha esuka kulawa madivayisi idluliswa nge-inthanethi iyiswa kungobo yomlando yedatha emaphakathi. Lokhu kungase kubonakale kulula ekuqaleni, kodwa isihluthulelo siwukuqinisekisa ukuthi wonke amathuluzi afakiwe ukuze asebenze kahle futhi ahlale iminyaka eminingi enezidingo zokulungisa ezincane. Ingabe inzwa yezinga lokushisa ingamamitha angu-1.2 ngaphezu komhlaba? Ingabe ukujula kwenzwa yokuswakama kwenhlabathi ncamashi kungamamitha angu-0.2? Ingabe i-vane yesimo sezulu ikhomba ngqo enyakatho? Okuhlangenwe nakho kwe-NIVA kule ndawo kubaluleke kakhulu - yonke into icacile futhi idinga ukwenziwa ngokucophelela.
IVanuatu, njengamazwe amaningi esifundeni sasePacific, isengozini enkulu yezinhlekelele zemvelo njengeziphepho nesomiso.
Kodwa umxhumanisi wephrojekthi ye-VMGD uSam Thapo uthi idatha ingenza okuningi kakhulu. "Kuzothuthukisa izimpilo zabantu abahlala lapha ngezindlela eziningi."
USam uthe lolu lwazi luzosiza iminyango kahulumeni waseVanuatu ukuthi ihlele kangcono izinto ezithinta isimo sezulu. Isibonelo, uMnyango Wezokudoba NezoLimo uzokwazi ukuhlela izidingo zokugcinwa kwamanzi ngenxa yezibikezelo ezinembe kakhudlwana zezinga lokushisa nemvula. Imboni yezokuvakasha izohlomula ekuqondeni kangcono izimo zezulu nokuthi i-El Niño/La Niña iyithinta kanjani isifunda.
Ukuthuthukiswa okuphawulekayo kwedatha yemvula kanye nezinga lokushisa kuzovumela uMnyango Wezempilo ukuthi unikeze izeluleko ezingcono ngezifo ezithwalwa omiyane. UMnyango Wezamandla ungase uthole ukuqonda okusha mayelana namandla kagesi welanga ukuze athathe indawo yokuthembela kwezinye iziqhingi kumandla kadizili.
Umsebenzi uxhaswe yi-Global Environment Facility futhi wenziwa uMnyango Wezokuguquguquka Kwesimo Sezulu waseVanuatu kanye noHlelo Lokuthuthukiswa KweNhlangano Yezizwe Ezihlangene (UNDP) njengengxenye yoHlelo Lokumelana Nokwakha Ngohlelo Lokuthuthukiswa Kwengqalasizinda. Kuyizindleko ezincane uma kuqhathaniswa, kodwa kunethuba lokuthola okuningi njengembuyiselo.
