Te whakapai ake i ngā mōhiohio me ngā ratonga āhuarangi i Vanuatu

He wero motuhake te waihanga i ngā mōhiohio me ngā ratonga āhuarangi pai ake i Vanuatu.
Neke atu i te 15 tau a Andrew Harper e mahi ana hei tohunga āhuarangi mō te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa mō NIWA, ā, e mōhio ana ia ki ngā mea ka tumanakohia ina mahi ia i te rohe.
Ko ngā mahere pea ka uru atu ki roto i ngā putea sima 17, ngā paipa PVC 42 mita, ngā rauemi taiapa pakari 80 mita me ngā taputapu hei tuku i te wā tika mō te hanganga, e ai ki tāna. "Engari i whakarērea taua mahere i te korenga o te poti tuku taonga i wehe atu i te tauranga nā te awhiowhio e pā mai ana.
"He iti noa iho ngā waka o te rohe, nō reira, ki te kitea he waka reti, he mea pai tēnā. I ngā moutere iti o Vanuatu, me utu te moni mō te wāhi noho, ngā rererangi me te kai, ā, ehara tēnei i te raruraru kia mōhio rā anō koe he maha ngā wāhi ka taea e ngā tāngata whenua te tiki moni, me te kore e hoki ki te tuawhenua."
Tāpirihia ki ngā uauatanga reo, ko ngā mahi whakahaere e whakaarohia ana e koe he mea noa i Aotearoa, ka rite ki tētahi wero nui rawa atu i te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa.
I pāngia ēnei wero katoa e te tīmatanga o te tāutanga a NIWA i ngā teihana huarere aunoa (AWS) puta noa i Vanuatu i te tīmatanga o tēnei tau. Nā ēnei wero, kāore e taea te mahi me te kore he mōhiotanga ā-rohe o te hoa kaupapa, te Tari Āhuarangi me ngā Tūponotanga Whenua o Vanuatu (VMGD).
I mahi tahi a Andrew Harper rāua ko tana hoa mahi a Marty Flanagan me ētahi tohunga hangarau VMGD tokoono me tētahi rōpū iti o ngā tāne o te rohe e mahi ana i ngā mahi ā-ringa. Ka tirotirohia e Andrew rāua ko Marty ngā taipitopito hangarau, ā, ka whakangungu, ka ārahi hoki i ngā kaimahi VMGD kia taea ai e rātou te mahi takitahi i ngā kaupapa o muri mai.
E ono ngā teihana kua oti kē te tāuta, e toru atu kua tukuna atu, ā, ka tāutahia i te marama o Hepetema. E ono atu anō kei te whakamaheretia, tera pea i te tau e tū mai nei.
Ka taea e ngā kaimahi hangarau o NIWA te tautoko tonu mēnā e hiahiatia ana, engari ko te whakaaro matua o tēnei mahi i Vanuatu me te nuinga o ngā mahi a NIWA i te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa ko te āhei i ngā whakahaere ā-rohe o ia whenua ki te pupuri i ā rātou ake taputapu me te tautoko i ā rātou ake mahi.
Ka kapi te whatunga AWS tata ki te 1,000 kiromita mai i Aneityum i te tonga ki Vanua Lava i te raki.
Kei ia AWS ngā taputapu tika e ine ana i te tere me te ahunga o te hau, te pāmahana o te hau me te whenua, te pēhanga hau, te haumākū, te ua me te hihi o te rā. Ka tāutahia ngā taputapu katoa i roto i te huarahi tino ture, e ai ki ngā paerewa me ngā tikanga a te World Meteorological Organization kia rite ai te tuku pūrongo.
Ka tukuna ngā raraunga mai i ēnei taputapu mā te Ipurangi ki tētahi pūranga raraunga matua. Tērā pea he māmā noa iho tēnei i te tīmatanga, engari ko te mea nui ko te whakarite kia tāutahia ngā taputapu katoa kia tika ai te mahi, kia roa ai hoki mō ngā tau maha, me te iti rawa o ngā whakaritenga tiaki. Kei te 1.2 mita te teitei o te pūoko pāmahana i runga ake i te whenua? Kei te 0.2 mita tonu te hohonutanga o te pūoko makuku oneone? Kei te tohu tika te mata o te rangi ki te raki? He mea tino nui te wheako o NIVA i tēnei wāhanga – he mārama ngā mea katoa, ā, me mahi āta.
He tino pāngia a Vanuatu, pērā i te nuinga o ngā whenua o te rohe o Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, e ngā āhuatanga kino o te taiao pērā i ngā awhiowhio me ngā tauraki.
Engari e ai ki te kaiwhakahaere kaupapa VMGD, a Sam Thapo, he nui ake ngā mahi ka taea e ngā raraunga te mahi. "Ka whakapai ake i te oranga o te hunga e noho ana i konei i ngā huarahi maha."
I kī a Sam mā ngā mōhiohio nei ka āwhina i ngā tari kāwanatanga o Vanuatu ki te whakamahere pai ake i ngā mahi e pā ana ki te āhuarangi. Hei tauira, ka taea e te Manatū Hī ika me te Ahuwhenua te whakamahere mō ngā hiahia rokiroki wai nā te tika ake o ngā matapae ā-wā mō te pāmahana me te ua. Ka whai hua te umanga tūruhi mai i te mārama ake ki ngā tauira huarere me te pānga o El Niño/La Niña ki te rohe.
Mā ngā whakapainga nui o ngā raraunga ua me te pāmahana ka taea e te Tari Hauora te whakarato tohutohu pai ake mō ngā mate e kawea mai ana e te namu. Tērā pea ka whiwhi te Tari Pūngao i tētahi tirohanga hou ki te kaha o te hiko o te rā hei whakakapi i te whakawhirinaki o ētahi moutere ki te hiko tīhiera.
I tautokona te mahi e te Global Environment Facility, ā, i whakatinanahia e te Manatū Huringa Āhuarangi o Vanuatu me te United Nations Development Program (UNDP) hei wāhanga o te kaupapa Building Resilience through Infrastructure Improvement. He utu iti noa iho, engari he nui ake pea te utu ka puta mai.
