ʻO ka nui loa o ke kūlanakauhaleʻoʻAmelika e hele koke ana i lalo i ka wai a me miliona mau kānaka e noho nei!
ʻO kekahi o nā kūlanakauhale nui loa a nui loa iʻAmelika Hui Pūʻia e'ōlelo mau nei i ka inoa o ke kūlanakauhale nui loa ma ka honua nei. Ma muli o nā kumukūʻai he nui, 8.5 i ka 10.5 miliona kānaka e noho ana i laila - aʻo kēia ka mea e pale ai i 1.5-2 miliona mau malihini hele. ʻOiai e ulu pinepine ana nā'ōlaʻi a me nā ua nui i loko o ia mau mea,ʻike mau nā meteorologists a me nā climatologists i nā mākaʻikaʻi o nā loli o ke aniau a me ka neʻeʻana o nā pāpū lectonic. Ua hopohopo nā lālā o nāʻeleleʻepekemaʻekolu oʻAmelika Hui Pūʻia i kēia manawa:ʻO New York ma lalo o ka wai a hiki i ka 100 mau makahiki!
ʻO kaʻike mua e pili ana i kēiaʻikeʻikeʻike weliweli iʻikeʻia ma ka'enekemaʻepekema laulaʻau o ka puke moʻolelo Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Ua ho'ākākaʻia kaʻatikala i nā haʻawina maikaʻi loa, a ua kālepa ke aupuni i nā kānaka lapaʻau maiʻekolu mau kikowaena noiʻiʻepekema ma Princeton, Ruttersky a me ka'Oseanographic Institute. ʻO ke kumu o kēia kauoha heʻinoʻo Sandy, i lilo i pōʻino kūlohelohe no New York wale nō i ka makahiki 2012.
ʻO ka "Sandy" i puka mai i Jamaica kahi kumu o ka hopohopo no Barack Obama, koi ikaika aku i ka poʻe noho o ke kūlanakauhale e pani iā lākou iho i loko o ko lākou mau home a me ka mākaukau e hoʻokūkū i kahi makaniʻino wela. Ua hoʻokumuʻo Sandy i ka Stock Exchange, ka keʻena o UN, no ka hoʻopauʻana a me ka hōʻoleʻana i nā mokulele i nā moku'āinaʻekolu. Ua kaheʻia nā'ōkuhi'apuni 7, a uaʻokiʻiaʻo Manhattan Island no nā lāʻekolu i ka wai mai ka'āina mai. ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe o nā nalu e holoi iā ia i kahi 4 mika ke kiʻekiʻe. ʻO ka makeʻana o 73 poʻe a me ka poino o 65 mau piliona -ʻo ia ka mea i waiho i ka "Sandy" ma hope iho iā ia ma New York.
ʻO ka hopena hope loaʻo kaʻikeʻanaʻo "Sandy" ka nalu mua o ka hurricane - kahi pūpū o nā mea'ē aʻe, nā kahakai heʻewa ikaika loa. Ua hōʻoia nā kānakaʻepekema e hoʻonuiʻia ke alapine o ia cataclysms, e loaʻa ai ka ikaika piha i ka 2100-2170. ʻO ke kumu o kēia ka hoʻomehana honua: no laila, e piʻi aʻe ka mahana ma New York ma nā kenekaʻelua ma ka awelika makahiki o ka makahiki, no ka mea e kanuʻia ai ke kūlanakauhale ma lalo o nā nalu. ʻO ka mea pōʻino,ʻo ka Pelekikenaʻo Donald Trump i kēia manawa,ʻaʻoleʻo ia i manaʻoʻiʻo i ka hopena weliweli o New York a haʻalele i nā palapala hoʻohui'āina a pau oʻAmelika i kēlā me kēia ...
He aha ka make e hoʻopaʻiʻia e make i nā kānaka o New York? I kēia manawa i ka 2050, e pālua ka pinepine o nāʻino, aʻo ka nalu i ka manawa o kēlā me kēia o lākou e piʻi ai i 2.7-3 mika ke kiʻekiʻe.
