Hoʻoulu ʻia e ka hulu ʻēheu penguin, ua hoʻomohala ka poʻe noiʻi i kahi hopena kemika ʻole i ka pilikia o ka hau ma nā laina uila, nā makani makani a me nā ʻēheu mokulele.
Hiki i ka hōʻiliʻili hau ke hoʻopōʻino nui i nā ʻōnaehana a, i kekahi mau hihia, ke kumu i ka pau ʻana o ka mana.
ʻO nā ʻenehu makani, nā hale kiaʻi uila, nā drones a i ʻole nā ​​ʻēheu mokulele, ʻo ka hoʻonā ʻana i nā pilikia e hilinaʻi pinepine ʻia i nā ʻenehana koʻikoʻi o ka hana, ke kumu kūʻai a me ka ikaika, a me nā kemika like ʻole.
Manaʻo kekahi hui o nā mea noiʻi mai ke Kulanui ʻo McGill o Kanada ua loaʻa iā lākou kahi ala hou e hoʻoponopono ai i ka pilikia ma hope o ke aʻo ʻana i nā ʻēheu o nā penguins gentoo, e ʻau ana i loko o nā wai huʻihuʻi o Antarctica a ʻaʻole maloʻo kona hulu ma nā wela o ka honua.ma lalo o ke kiko hau.
"Ua noiʻi mua mākou i nā waiwai o nā lau lotus, maikaʻi loa i ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana, akā ʻike ʻia ʻaʻole maikaʻi i ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana," wahi a Associate Professor Ann Kitzig, ka mea e ʻimi nei i kahi hopena no kahi kokoke i hoʻokahi makahiki.
"ʻAʻole a hiki i ka wā i hoʻomaka ai mākou e aʻo i ka nui o nā hulu penguin i ʻike mākou i kahi mea kūlohelohe hiki ke wehe i ka wai a me ka hau."
ʻO ke ʻano liʻiliʻi o ka hulu penguin (kiʻi ʻia ma luna) he mau lāʻau a me nā lālā e ʻoki ʻia ana mai kahi ʻāpana hulu waena me nā "loulou" e hoʻopili ai i kēlā me kēia hulu manu e hana i kahi moena.
Hōʻike ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau o ke kiʻi i kahi ʻāpana okuhiliʻolelole uea kila i hoʻonani ʻia e nā mea noiʻi me nā nanogrooves e hoʻohālike ana i ka hierarchy o nā hulu penguin.
"Ua ʻike mākou ʻo ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana o ka hulu i hāʻawi i ka wai permeability, a ʻo kā lākou mau ʻili serrated e hōʻemi i ka hoʻopili hau," wahi a Michael Wood, kekahi o nā mea kākau o ka noiʻi."Ua hiki iā mākou ke hoʻopili i kēia mau hopena i hui pū ʻia me ka hoʻoili ʻana i ka laser o ka uea i ulana ʻia."
Ua wehewehe ʻo Kitzig: "He mea kūʻē paha ia, akā ʻo ke kī i ka anti-icing ʻo nā pores āpau i loko o ka mesh e hoʻomoʻa i ka wai ma lalo o nā kūlana hau.Paʻa ka wai i loko o kēia mau pores, a i kona hoʻonui ʻana, hana ia i nā māwae, e like me ʻoe.ʻIke mākou i loko o nā pahu hau i loko o nā pahu hau.Pono mākou e hoʻoikaika liʻiliʻi e wehe i ka hau i kā mākou mīkini no ka mea ʻo nā māwae i loko o kēlā me kēia puka e hele maʻalahi ma luna o ka ʻili o kēia mau uwea wili.
Ua hana nā mea noiʻi i nā hoʻāʻo ʻana o ka makani ma nā ʻaoʻao stenciled a ʻike ʻia ʻo ka mālama ʻana he 95 pakeneka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka pale ʻana i ka hau ma mua o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻole ʻia.kuhiliʻolenā pā kila.No ka mea ʻaʻole koi ʻia ka lāʻau kemika, hāʻawi ke ala hou i kahi hopena mālama ʻole i ka pilikia o ka hoʻokumu ʻana o ka hau ma nā turbines makani, nā pou mana a me nā laina mana, a me nā drones.
Ua hoʻohui ʻo Kitzig: "Ma muli o ke ʻano o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i nā mokulele mokulele a me nā pilikia e pili ana, ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻopili wale ʻia kahi ʻēheu mokulele i ka mesh mesh."
"Akā naʻe, i kekahi lā hiki i ka ʻili o ka ʻēheu mokulele ke loaʻa i ke ʻano a mākou e aʻo nei, a e hana ʻia ka deicing ma o ka hui ʻana o nā hana deicing kuʻuna ma luna o ka ʻēheu, e hana pū ana me nā ʻano ʻili i hoʻoulu ʻia e nā ʻēheu penguin."
