Ukuguguleka kwemikhumbi olwandle kubangela umonakalo emvelweni futhi kungaba nemiphumela emibi ezitshalweni nasezilwaneni zasolwandle.

“Ukulimala ngokomzimba noma ukufa ngenxa yokushayisana, ukukhiqizwa komsindo, kanye nokwanda kokungcola yizona zindlela eziyinhloko lapho ukumba kungathinta khona izilwane zasolwandle ngokuqondile,” kusho isihloko esikuyi-ICES Journal of Marine Science.

"Imiphumela engaqondile yokumba emanzini ezincelisayo zasolwandle ivela ezinguqukweni endaweni yazo ebonakalayo noma ezizingelweni zazo. Izici zomzimba, njenge-topography, ukujula, amagagasi, imisinga yolwandle, usayizi wezinhlayiya zedaka kanye nokugcwala kwedaka elimisiwe, kuyashintshwa ngokumba emanzini, kodwa izinguquko zenzeka ngokwemvelo ngenxa yezehlakalo eziphazamisayo ezifana namagagasi, amagagasi neziphepho."

Ukumba imigodi nakho kungaba nomthelela omubi otshanini basolwandle, okuholela ezinguqukweni zesikhathi eside ogwini futhi okungenzeka kubeke imiphakathi yasogwini engozini. Utshani basolwandle bungasiza ekumelaneni nokuguguleka kolwandle futhi bube yingxenye yezindawo zokuvimba amanzi ezivikela ugu ezivunguvungwini. Ukumba imigodi kungadalula imibhede yotshani basolwandle ekuminyanisweni, ekususweni noma ekubhujisweni.
Ngenhlanhla, ngedatha efanele, singanciphisa imiphumela emibi yokumba imigodi yasolwandle.
Izifundo zikhombisile ukuthi ngezinqubo zokuphatha ezifanele, imiphumela yokumba izinhlanzi zasolwandle ingakhawulelwa ekuvaleni umsindo, izinguquko zokuziphatha zesikhashana kanye nezinguquko ekutholakaleni kwezilwane ezidla inyama.

Osonkontileka bokugudluza amanzi bangasebenzisa ama-mini wave buoy kaFrankstar ukuthuthukisa ukuphepha nokusebenza kahle. Abasebenzi bangafinyelela idatha yamagagasi yesikhathi sangempela eqoqwe yi-Mini wave buoy ukuze banikeze ulwazi ngezinqumo zokuthi ungahambi/ungahambi, kanye nedatha yokucindezela kwamanzi angaphansi komhlaba eqoqwe ukuze kuqashwe amazinga amanzi endaweni yephrojekthi.

Esikhathini esizayo, osonkontileka bokugugula amanzi bazokwazi nokusebenzisa imishini yokuzwa amanzi yasolwandle yaseFrankstar ukuqapha ukugugula kwamanzi, noma ukuthi amanzi acacile noma awaboni kangakanani. Umsebenzi wokugugula amanzi uvusa inani elikhulu lendle, okuholela ekulinganisweni kokugugula kwamanzi okungaphezu kokujwayelekile emanzini (okungukuthi ukwanda kokugugula kwamanzi). Amanzi agugula amanzi anodaka futhi afihla ukukhanya kanye nokubonakala kwezitshalo nezilwane zasolwandle. Njengoba i-Mini Wave buoy iyisikhungo samandla nokuxhumana, opharetha bazokwazi ukufinyelela izilinganiso ezivela kuzinzwa zokugugula amanzi ezinamathiselwe kuma-smart moorings ngokusebenzisa i-interface yehadiwe evulekile yaseBristlemouth, enikeza ukusebenza kwe-plug-and-play kwezinhlelo zokuzwa amanzi. Idatha iqoqwa futhi idluliselwa ngesikhathi sangempela, okuvumela ukugugula amanzi ukuthi kuqashwe njalo ngesikhathi sokusebenza kokugugula amanzi.
