Ngomhla we-18 kuMeyi kwiphephandaba »Guardian»Kwapapashwa inqaku leendaba elinomdla: Indawo yaseSvalbard yemini yentshabalalo iye yakhukuliseka ngumkhenkce onyibilika kumaqondo obushushu aphezulu. Kule ndawo, zigcinwa malunga nesigidi seembewu zezona ntlobo zininzi zezityalo ukuze, xa zinokuthi zitshabalale, ziphinde zifumaneke.
Kucacile. Xa indawo enjalo ikhukula amanzi, kuyinto eqhelekileyo ukuba nexhala; hayi ngelize, ngomso singayidinga loo mbewu. Kodwa inyani yayingeyonto imangalisayo.
Omnye wabadali begumbi elithethileyo wathetha naye »Sayensi eLwazi»Kwaye wachaza ukuba khange ikhukuthe nyani, kodwa kunoko amanzi angena kwitonela, into ekubonakala ukuba yenzeka rhoqo, kwaye yabanda. Itonela, elimalunga nekhulu leemitha ubude, lisebenza njengendlela yokuhamba intaba. Phambi kokufikelela kwiminyango yegumbi elingaphantsi, umhlaba uhamba phezulu, kwaye kanye kule ndawo apho amanzi aqokelela khona kwaye akhutshwa ziimpompo ezimbini.
»Itonela lalingenzelwanga ukuba lingangeni manzi ngaphambili kuba sasingacingi ukuba liyimfuneko», Wachaza. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba amanzi angene ngaphezulu, ngekhe kuthathe ixesha elide ukuba ngumkhenkce, kuba iqondo lobushushu ngu -18 .C. Kodwa indawo enjalo kufanele ukuba izimele yodwa, ke urhulumente waseNorway uceba ukulungisa ukuvuza ukuze kungaphinde kwenzeke.
Nangona kunjalo, wathi, ngokusekwe kwizifundo azenzileyo, ukuba wonke umkhenkce uyanyibilika kwaye itsunami enkulu yenzeke kanye phambi kwedome, ngekhe kubekho ngxaki, kuba igumbi elingaphezulu liya kuba malunga namabali amahlanu okanye asixhenxe ngaphezulu komsitho.
