Xa igqityiwe ngowe-1938, umgwaqo omkhulu wabonisa ukuqala kwe-adventures engaqhelekanga kumqhubi waseMntla-Amerika ohamba ngeekhilomitha ezili-113 zomgwaqo nokuwela iibhuloho ezingama-42 ukuba avele eMiami ukuya kwinqanaba lasezantsi kwilizwekazi lase-US-Key West.

IiReal Coral Reefs

Umbuso kuphela kwilizwekazi lase-United States ukuba ube neenkcukacha ezinkulu zokungcwaba kweeforali ezikufutshane ne-Florida. Yenziwe iminyaka engamahlanu ukuya kweyisixhenxe eyadlulayo, ukukhula kwemifula kuphuculwa - ezinye iqikelelo ziqala ukusuka kwisinye ukuya kwiiinyawo ezilishumi elinamathandathu minyaka yonke.

Abaqulunqi bemimandla yendawo yamanzi bayamakhorali e-stones - ama-squelettes aphezulu kakhulu awenza umqolo we-reef akhiwa xa i-polyps, ingxenye ephilayo ye-coral, icoca i-calcium emanzini olwandle kwaye idibanise ne-carbon dioxide. Enyanisweni, ii-corals ze-reef zinzima kakhulu. Ukuzikhethela njengezilwanyana, ii-corals ziyinkimbinkimbi zezilwanyana ezinokuhlala ngaphakathi kwezicubu zezilwanyana. Bobabini bancedwa omnye nomnye ngokuhlanganisana okunzima kakhulu kwe-photosynthesis ukuba izityalo zinikezela kwaye zichithe izilwanyana. Yintoni ebalulekileyo kukuba izityalo, ezibizwa ngokuba yi-zooxanthellae, zinoxanduva lobuninzi bombala obuhle obonakala kwii-corals.

Ngaphandle kokubaluleka kokusingqongileyo ngokubonelela indawo yokuhlala, indawo yokutya kunye nokuzalisa izityalo ezininzi kunye nezilwanyana, izixhobo ze-coral zinika ukukhuselwa kwesiqhwithi semvelo kwiindawo zaseFlorida. Kwakhona kubaluleke kakhulu kwi-economy ye-Florida ye-mpuma ngokuzisa izigidi zeerandi zentlawulo kwiindawo zokuzonwabisa kunye nokuloba.

Indawo yokutshisa iindawo ezinxweme ezisePrithani zithengisa izigidi zabantu kwiindwendwe ngonyaka. Luyimpumelelo ehle ukuhamba emanzini aze abone ezi zakhiwo ezintle ezibandakanya ama-corals kunye nemibala yolwandle.

Bok Tower

I-Bok Tower imide kakhulu kwisidima esiphezulu kwindawo ephakamileyo e- Central Florida kwaye ibonisa ukuphefumlelwa kombono womntu omnye.
