Omnye weMexico yeNdalo yemvelo
Enye yeenqanawa ezinkulu ze-coral emhlabeni, i-Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System, eyaziwa ngokuba yiMesoamerican Reef okanye iMean Great Reef, ihamba malunga neekhilomitha ezili-600 ukusuka kwi-Isla Contoy ngasentla kwiphondo laseYucatan ukuya kwiiIbay Islands eHonduras. I-system ye-reef iquka indawo ezahlukahlukeneyo ezikhuselekileyo kunye neepaki ezibandakanya i-Arrecifes de Cozumel National Park, iSian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, i-Arrecifes de Xcalak National Park kunye neCayos Cochinos Marine Park.

Umngcingo wokhuselo ngumlambo osondeleyo kwaye uqhubeka ufana nommandla wonxweme, unxweme olunzulu phakathi kwawo kunye nxweme. I-Mesoamerican Reef iqulethe iintlobo ezingaphezu kwezi-66 zee-corals kunye neentlobo ezingaphezu kwe-500 zeentlanzi, kunye neentlobo ezininzi zeentlanzi zasolwandle, i-manatees, ihlengethwa kunye ne- whale sharks .
Indawo yeMesoamerican Barrier Reef ngaphandle kweNxweme yaseCancun , i- Riviera Maya , kunye neCosta Maya yenze ezi ndawo zibalaseleyo kulabo abanomdla kwi-scuba diving kunye ne-snorkeling kwiholide zabo. Ezinye iindawo zokudiba ezinkulu ziquka iManchones Reef, iMusic Museum yase-Cancun kunye neC58 Shipwreck . Funda kabanzi malunga nokuhamba nge- scuba kwiPeninsula yaseYucatan .
Isityalo esiyingozi
I-coral reef ingxenyana enye yezinto eziphilayo ezibandakanya amahlathi omlambo, iindawo ezinxweme kunye nemigxobhozo yamanxweme.
Ngalunye lwale miba ibalulekile ekugcinweni kwayo yonke. Amahlathi omlambo asebenza njengesihluthulelo kwaye anceda ukugcina ukungcoliseka komhlaba ukususela elwandle. Ikwasebenza njengendawo yokuloba kwiintlanzi ze-coral reef kunye nokutya kunye nezizathu zokufumana izilwanyana ezahlukahlukeneyo zasolwandle.
Le nkcubeko ijongene neengongelo ezininzi, ezinye, njengemvula yamanzi, zendalo, kwaye ezinye zibangelwa yimisebenzi yabantu ezifana nokuloba kunye nokungcola.
Ngelishwa, uphuhliso lonxweme luvame ukuza kwiindleko zehlathi leemangrove ezibalulekileyo kwimpilo yomdaka. Iehotele ezimbalwa kunye neendawo zokungcebeleka zihlawulela le ndlela kwaye zenze umzamo wokugcina ama-mangroves kunye nayo yonke indawo yendalo.
Reeficial Reef
Enye yemigudu yokukhusela i-Mesoamerican Barrier Reef yilawa yokwakha imifula. Le projekthi enkulu yendalo yenziwa ngo-2014. Izakhiwo eziyi-800 ezipakitrami ezenziwe nge-samente kunye ne-silika encinci zafakwa kwindawo esemanzini ngasePuerto Morelos . Kukholelwa ukuba umlambo owenzelayo unceda ukukhusela umda wonxweme ekukhuliseni. Izakhiwo zenzelwe ukuba zinobuhlobo bendalo kwaye zikhuthaze ukubunjwa kwemifula emitsha yemvelo kunye nokuhlaziywa kwendalo. Le projekthi ibizwa ngokuba yiKan Kanán kwaye ityathwa ngokuthi "Guardian of the Caribbean". Kwimitha eyi-1.9, ngumhlaba ode kunabo bonke emhlabeni. Kubonwe ngasentla, umjelo wokufakelwa ubeka umlo wenyoka.
