ʻO ke Kai Arctic ka mea liʻiliʻi loa ma ka honua. ʻO kona wahi he "wale" 14 miliona mau kilomika kilomika. Aia ia i ka Hemolele ʻAkau ākea a ʻaʻole e mahana a hiki i ke kiko o ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana o ka hau. Hoʻomaka ka uhi ʻana o ka hau i kekahi manawa e neʻe, akā ʻaʻole nalo. ʻO ka flora a me nā holoholona ma aneʻi, ʻaʻole ʻokoʻa loa. ʻO kahi nui o nā ʻano iʻa, nā manu a me nā mea ola ʻē aʻe e nānā wale ʻia ma nā wahi wale nō.
Hoʻomohala kai
Ma muli o ke aniau ʻino, ʻaʻole i hiki i ke kai Arctic i nā kānaka i nā kenekulia he nui. Ua hoʻonohonoho ʻia nā huakaʻi ma aneʻi, akā ʻaʻole ʻae ka ʻenehana iā ia e hoʻololi no ka hoʻouna ʻana a i ʻole nā hana ʻē aʻe.
ʻO nā ʻōlelo mua o kēia moana a hiki i ka 5th kenekulia BC. Nui nā huakaʻi a me nā ʻepekema pākahi i komo i ka hoʻopaʻa haʻawina o nā panalāʻau, nā mea i aʻo ʻia i nā ʻano kenekulia i ke ʻano o ka waihona, nā kahawai, ke kai, nā mokupuni, a pēlā wale aku.
ʻO nā hoʻāʻo mua e hoʻokele i nā wahi o ke kai me ka ʻole o ka hau mau loa i ka makahiki 1600. ʻO ka hapa nui o lākou i pau i nā wrecks ma muli o ke kuʻi ʻana o nā moku me nā pahu hau hau he nui. Ua loli nā mea āpau me ka hana o nā moku hau. Ua kūkulu ʻia ka mea haʻihaʻi hau mua ma Rukia a ua kapa ʻia ʻo Payot. He mokuahi me kahi ʻano kūikawā o ke kakaka, kahi i hiki ai ke haki i ka hau ma muli o ka nui o ka moku.
ʻO ka hoʻohana ʻana o nā hau hau i hiki ke hoʻomaka i nā hana hoʻouna ma ka Arctic Ocean, nā ala halihali haku a hana i kahi papa inoa o nā hoʻoweliweli i ka ʻōnaehana kaiaola kūloko.
ʻO ka ʻōpala a me ka haumia
ʻO ka hōʻea nui ʻana o ka poʻe ma kahakai a me ka hau o ke kai i alakaʻi i ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o nā landfills. Ma waho o kekahi mau wahi i nā kauhale, hoʻolei wale ʻia ka ʻōpala i ka hau. Uhi ʻia me ka hau, paʻa a paʻa i ka hau mau loa.
ʻO kahi kiko ʻokoʻa i ka haumia o ke kai kahi ʻano kemika like ʻole i hōʻike ʻia ma aneʻi ma muli o nā hana a ke kanaka. ʻO ka mea mua loa, he mau ʻaualo wai kēia. I kēlā me kēia makahiki, ma kahi o ʻumi miliona mau mika cubic o ka wai i hana ʻole ʻia e hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka moana mai nā pūʻali koa a me nā kūloko lehulehu, nā kauhale, a me nā wahi.
No kekahi manawa lōʻihi, ua hoʻohana ʻia nā kahakai ʻaʻole hoʻomohala ʻia, a me nā mokupuni he nui o ka Moana Arctic no ka hoʻolei ʻana i nā ʻōpala kemika like ʻole. No laila, ma ʻaneʻi hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa nā pahu me ka aila ʻenekini i hoʻohana ʻia, wahie a me nā mea weliweli ʻē aʻe. I ke kai ʻo Kara, hoʻopiha ʻia nā ipu me nā ʻōpala radioactive, e hoʻoweliweli nei i nā ola āpau i loko o kahi radius o mau haneli mau kilomita.
ʻOihana hoʻokele
ʻO ka hana hoʻomāinoino a hoʻonui mau i ka hana kanaka i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā ala halihali, nā kahua koa, nā paepae no ka hoʻouku ʻana ma ke kai Arctic e alakaʻi aku ai i ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana o ka hau a me ka hoʻololi o ka hoʻomehana wela o ka ʻāina. Ma muli o ka hopena o kēia kino o ka wai i ke aniau maʻamau o ka honua, hiki i nā hopena ke weliweli.
ʻO ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana o ka hau kahiko, halulu mai nā moku a me nā mea anthropogenic ʻē aʻe e alakaʻi i ka hōʻino ʻana i nā kūlana noho a me ka hoʻemi ʻana i ka helu o nā holoholona kūloko - nā polar bear, nā sila, a pēlā aku.
I kēia manawa, i loko o ke kiʻina o ka mālama ʻana o ka Moana Arctic, ka ʻAha ʻAlekika ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me ke Kumumanaʻo no ka pale ʻana i ke kaiapuni Arctic, i ʻāpono ʻia e nā mokuʻāina ʻewalu i loaʻa nā palena me ka moana. Lawe ʻia ka palapala i mea e kaupalena ai i ka ukana anthropogenic ma ka waihona wai a hoʻoliʻiliʻi i nā hopena no ka holoholona lōhiu.
