El IChibi Ness Yichibi elikhulu kunawo wonke futhi elibanzi kunawo wonke eGreat Britain elinendawo yokugcina amanzi ahlanzekile, linamakhilomitha-skwele angaphezudlwana kuka-65 futhi ukujula kwalo kudlula amamitha angama-230. Sikumema ukuthi ufunde lesi sihloko ukuze uthole ulwazi olwengeziwe!
Iyini i-Loch Ness?
El IChibi Ness inomthamo omkhulu wamanzi ahlanzekile eBrithani, itholakala eGreat Glen, enqamula Izintaba futhi iyingxenye yohlelo lwemizila yamanzi edlula eScotland unjiniyela womphakathi uThomas Telford axhuma ngayo ngoMsele waseCaledonian (owavulwa ngo-1822).
Ikuphi i-Loch Ness?
Entshonalanga ye-Scottish Highlands ingenye yezindawo zamaholide ezidume kakhulu, ebizwa ngokuthi i-Loch Ness, enobude obungaphezu kwamakhilomitha angama-30, i-Ness iyindawo yesibili ngobukhulu eScotland mayelana nokufuduka.
Eduze kwechibi kukhona yonke into yeholide ehlukahlukene, njengezindawo zomlando, imvelo ebabazekayo, izindawo ezithokomele zokuhlala kanye nezindawo zokudlela ezihamba phambili. Ungathatha uhambo lokuhamba uphumule ohlangothini oluhle oluseningizimu yechibi noma uzame ukuqonda indlela ende yokuhamba izintaba engamamayela angu-70 (amakhilomitha angu-XNUMX).
Izici ze-Loch Ness
I-Loch Ness basin ithatha ngaphezu kwamakhilomitha-skwele angama-700 (1.800 km²) futhi inezindawo ezimbalwa. Imifula, okuhlanganisa i-Oich ne-Enrick, umlomo wayo nguMfula Ness, ogeleza ungene eMoray Firth e-Inverness, ama-surface oscillations, okubangelwa ukushisa okuhlukile, kuvamile ku-loch.
Ukuphakama nokuwa okuqinile kwezinga lechibi kungesinye sezizathu zokuntuleka kwezitshalo zamanzi, esinye isizathu ukujula okukhulu kwechibi eduze nogu, izilwane nazo ziyindlala.
Njengamanye ama-lochs ajulile kakhulu eScotland, i IChibi Ness kuhlala inunu yasemanzini, ngokubona okuningi, kubikwe lesi silo saseLoch Ness futhi ukuthi kungenzeka sibe khona, mhlawumbe ngesimo somuntu osinde eyedwa wama-plesiosaurs angasekho, asaqhubeka nokuthakasela abaningi.
izinhlobo ezaziwayo
Phakathi kwezinhlobo zasolwandle ezigqama kakhulu ezitholakala e-Loch de Ness sinokulandelayo:
- eel yaseYurophu
- i-pike yaseYurophu
- Unameva
- i-brook lamprey
- minnow
- I-salmon yase-Atlantic
- I-trout ejwayelekile
Ungafika kanjani e-Loch Ness?
Izithuthi zomphakathi zendawo azifaneleki kakhulu ohambweni oluya echibini, amabhasi awavamile ukugijima, kungcono ukuma lapho uqashisa izimoto noma usebenzise izinsiza ze-ejensi yokuhamba e-Edinburgh noma e-Inverness, amadolobha amabili abalulekile ezweni, uhambo olusuka e-Edinburgh luzothatha. amahora angaphezu kwamane, ukusuka e-Inverness ngeke kuthathe imizuzu engaphezu kwengama-30.
Uhambo lungabandakanya hhayi kuphela ibhasi eliya e-loch, kodwa futhi nohambo lwesikebhe ku-loch, okwandisa kakhulu amathuba akho okubona i-Loch Ness Monster, ungathatha futhi uhambo olusuka edolobheni elisogwini lolwandle i-Dochfour noma isikhungo sokuvakasha sase-Drumnadrochit: leli dolobha liyinhloko-dolobha engekho emthethweni ye "monster".
Umlando we-Loch Ness
Ngokusho kososayensi, i-Loch Ness yasungulwa nge-Ice Age, ngenxa yokugudluzwa kwamadwala, indawo yokugcina amanzi inomumo omude, ububanzi bayo bungaphezu kwamakhilomitha amabili, kanti ubude bayo bungaphezu kuka-30 km.
Amanzi aleli chibi, nakuba esemasha futhi engangcolisiwe, anodaka kakhulu, ayinqwaba ye-peat phansi, ayivumeli ososayensi ukuba benze ucwaningo olunzulu ngomhlaba ongaphansi kwamanzi, okhiqiza izinganekwane eziningi ezizungeze i-Loch Ness.
Izimfihlo kanye legends azungeze IChibi Ness, edume kakhulu elimayelana nesidalwa esesabekayo esihlala emanzini, inunu yaseLoch Ness noma njengoba sibizwa kanjalo ngothando, uNessie, amarekhodi aso okuqala angonyaka ka-565, athi lesi silo sabamba futhi sadla umuntu wendawo. umlimi.
Ngokuhamba kweminyaka, amahemuhemu asakazekele kude futhi kuze kube manje, nakuba kungenabufakazi, iqiniso noma inganekwane, inani elikhulu labantu liza echibini linethemba lokubona uNessie ngamehlo abo.
I-Nessie yaduma kakhulu kubantu bendawo kanye nezivakashi kangangokuthi isinikezelwe kuyo imnyuziyamu, itholakala edolobhaneni laseDrumnadrochit futhi inombukiso ophelele nothakazelisayo okhuluma ngokuhlolwa kwechibi, izinganekwane mayelana nama-dragons avela kudala kakhulu. izikhathi.
I-Loch Ness Monster cishe yayiwumdondoshiya, ososayensi baseNew Zealand basho kanjalo lapho benquma ukuhlanganisa ikhathalogi yezitshalo nezilwane zase-Loch Ness. IChibi NessUkuze baqinisekise lokhu, bathatha amasampula amanzi angu-250 ezingxenyeni ezihlukahlukene zechibi futhi bahlola ukwakheka kwe-DNA etholakala kulo. Kwatholakala ukuthi zazingekho izilwane ezinkulu echibini futhi cishe zazingekho.
Abazange bathole imikhondo ye-plesiosaur (abanye babekholelwa ukuthi uNessie angaba idayinaso) ngisho nenhlanzi enkulu efana ne-salmon, ukuphela kwesilwane echibini esakwazi ukuba sikhulu i-eel, ososayensi abazange baphenye imikhondo yesilo sase-Loch Ness. , ababehlosile kwakuwucwaningo oluningiliziwe lwezitshalo nezilwane zase-Loch Ness.
Kodwa isazi sofuzo uNeil Gemmell owayebambe iqhaza ocwaningweni, engxoxweni neBBC, wabelane ngemicabango yakhe ngoNessie.
"Asitholanga mkhondo walesi sidalwa ekuhlaziyeni i-DNA, ngisho nokude sifana ne-dinosaur, ngakho-ke, ngiyaxolisa, ngithola inguqulo ye-plesiosaur ingenasisekelo."
Ososayensi bathi ekugcineni bathole "inkolelo-mbono ezwakalayo" echaza ukuba khona kwesilo sase-Loch Ness. I-Nessie - lesi akusona isilo sangaphansi kwamanzi sangenkathi ye-Jurassic, noma indlovu yesekisi ebhukuda echibini, ikhulisa umboko. Ngokocwaningo lwakamuva, uma uNessie ekhona, cishe umbokwane nje omkhulu.
Imibiko yokuqala yesilo IChibi Ness Bavela eminyakeni eyi-1.500 edlule ngenkathi, ngo-AD 565, isithunywa sevangeli sase-Ireland sibona isilo esikhulu emfuleni iNess. Kamuva, ngo-1930, umthumeli we-Inverness wabika ngokubonwa kokuqala kukaNessie esikhathini sethu, iqiniso elidume kakhulu eliqinisekisa ubukhona be-monster isithombe esivela ku-1934, lapho uhlaka olunomthunzi lwe-monster Loch Ness lungahlukaniswa khona. phezu kwamanzi.
Ngonyaka odlule, ithimba lamazwe ngamazwe lososayensi laqoqa amasampula amanzi angaphezu kuka-200 ekujuleni okuhlukene kwe-Loch Ness futhi lakhipha zonke izinhlobo ze-DNA yemvelo kubo, liqhathanisa namasampula angu-36 avela emachibini aseduze, ngenxa yalokho, ososayensi bathola uhlu lwazo zonke izinhlobo ze-DNA. izakhamuzi zaseLoch Ness, kusukela kumagciwane kuya ezilwaneni nasezitshalweni.
Inganekwane yeSilo
Inganekwane yesilo IChibi Ness Ihlehlela emuva onyakeni ka-565. USanta Colomba, isithunywa sevangeli sase-Ireland esiza ukubuyisela ubuKristu eScotland, wayezosindisa omunye walaba bafundi ekufeni, ngenkathi eletha umkhumbi owawuvaleleke, lesi sidalwa sasizofika phezulu futhi sigijime. kumfundi.
Ngakho-ke, u-Saint Colomba wenza isibonakaliso sesiphambano futhi wacela amandla kaNkulunkulu, ekhala esilwaneni ukuthi singamthinti umuntu, isidalwa, okuthiwa uNessie, sasiyoba nayo.
Kodwa le nganekwane yanamuhla ibuyela emuva ku-1933, lapho umbhangqwana wawuyobona lesi silo, esingasichaza ngokuthi "isilwane esikhulu" ngasogwini lwechibi, iphephandaba elishicilela lolu daba, ngeke lisho ukuthi umbhangqwana okukhulunywa ngawo, igcine ihhotela eduze kwaseLago, ngakho-ke umuntu angacabanga ukuthi leli bhizinisi bekuyindlela yokuheha izivakashi.
Imibono mayelana nemvelaphi yayo
I-Loch Ness Monster ichithe u-inki omningi, ikakhulukazi kusukela kwashicilelwa kuyi-Daily Mail, Ephreli 21, 1934, inkulumo ekude kakhulu nokucacile kodwa esekhona emlandweni, esithombeni, lapho ungaqagela khona ikhanda elincane elitshalwe ekugcineni. kwentamo ende ephuma emanzini, abaningi babona ubufakazi obungenakuphikwa bokuba khona kukaNessie, inunu ofakazi abaningi abathi base beyibonile kakade eLoch of Ness.
Ososayensi bathi ekugcineni bathole "inkolelo-mbono ezwakalayo" echaza ukuba khona kwesilo sase-Loch Ness. Nessie, lesi akusona isilo sangaphansi kwamanzi sangenkathi yeJurassic, futhi akuyona indlovu esekisini ebhukuda echibini, ikhulisa umboko, ngokocwaningo lwakamuva, uma uNessie ekhona, cishe umbokwane nje omkhulu.
Nakuba ososayensi abakwazanga ukuhlangana noNessie, bathola incazelo enengqondo yebhayoloji ngaye.Sekukonke, kwatholakala izinto eziphilayo ezingaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-500 kanye nezinhlobo ezingu-3.000 phakathi nocwaningo.
Ngokomholi wocwaningo uNeil Gemmill waseNyuvesi yase-Otago eNew Zealand, akukho ushaka, i-catfish noma i-sturgeon DNA etholakele endabeni eqoqiwe, okuhoxisa ukuba khona kwezinhlanzi ezinkulu ezingavamile echibini.
Okuphawulekayo, kumasampula amanzi, ososayensi bathola i-DNA yezinhlobo eziningana zezinto eziphilayo ezihlala emhlabeni futhi ezitholakala eduze ne-Loch Ness: amabheji, onogwaja, amagundane nezinyoni, nezimvu, izinkomo, izinja nezinyamazane. Izintaba nabo basohlwini, njengabantu.
Konke lokhu kubonisa ukunemba okuphezulu kokuqoqwa nokuhlaziywa kwesampula, njengoba ngisho ne-DNA yezilwane ezivakashela leli chibi ngezikhathi ezithile yatholakala kuzo, ucwaningo kufanele lunqume ukuba khona kwe-monster ehlala njalo ngaphansi kwamanzi.
I-Plesiosaur
Imibiko ye-monster ehlala e- IChibi Ness kusukela ezikhathini zasendulo, ikakhulukazi emifanekisweni yamatshe endawo eyenza isilwane esingaqondakali, i-akhawunti yokuqala ebhaliwe ivela ku-biography yase-St. siyala isilo ukuthi "sibuye."
Ngokobufakazi, lesi silo saseLoch Ness siyisilwane esinomzimba omkhulu, ikhanda elincane kodwa linentamo ende kanye nama-protuberances angu-2 noma 3 ngemuva, imilenze yangaphambili ingenza amaphiko kanye nezitho zangemuva zibe umsila, ngokusho kwamanye. ubufakazi, inunu yayiyoba nezinwele, ngesimo somhlwenga entanyeni, uboya noma ngisho namadevu, futhi inezimpondo ezimbili ezincane ekhanda layo.
Isilo se-Loch Ness siqhathaniswe ne-Plesiosaur ngumcwaningi u-Robert Rines, i-plesiosaur iyisilwane esihuquzelayo sasolwandle esikhulu sangaphambi komlando esinentamo ende namaphiko.
Ithrekhi "yezilwane ezihuquzelayo" yiyona edume kakhulu, nokho kunezimpikiswano eziningi zebhayoloji, okokuqala, izinga lokushisa lamanzi cishe liphansi kakhulu ukuze livumele izilwane ezihuquzelayo ukuthi zihlale zisebenza, ngakho-ke isilwane esihuquzelayo kuzodingeka size phezulu ukuze siphefumule. noma eze ezweni ukuzobekela amaqanda.
Isilwane esihuquzelayo esingafanelana kangcono nezithombe zikaNessie kungaba i-plesiosaur, lesi silwane sandulela i-coelacanth futhi asizange sishiye izinsalela zamathambo iminyaka engaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-70, umkhondo "wesilwane esincelisayo", nokho, ubonakala ungenzeka.
Iningi labantu licabanga ukuthi uNessie uyi-plesiosaur, isilwane sasolwandle esifana ne-dinosaur eyayeka ukuba khona ezigidini eziningi zeminyaka edlule lapho ukuqothulwa kokugcina kwenzeka, lesi senzakalo sihlobene neqiniso lokuthi, ngonyaka ka-1844, isazi sokuma komhlaba saseScotland uHugh Miller. uveze uhlaka lwamathambo e-plesiosaur esiqhingini saseScotland, nokho, ngokusho kukaJemill, asikho nesisodwa isihuquzelayo esikhona ohlwini.
Ngokusho kososayensi, umuntu ongase abe nesihloko esithi Nessie i-eel enkulu, lesi sitatimende sisekelwe eqinisweni lokuthi i-eel DNA yatholakala kuwo wonke amasampula e-Loch Ness.
esinye isilwane
inunu ye IChibi Ness yaphinde yaqhathaniswa noBernard Heuvelmans, isazi sezilwane saseFrance, i-hypothesis yayivela ohlotsheni olungaziwa lwe-pinniped, ingonyama yasolwandle enentamo ende, iphinde ibonise ukuthi izimpondo, ezichazwe kobunye ubufakazi, zingaba amashubhu okuphefumula.
Izakhamizi zesifunda saseLoch Ness zithi kungaba umbokwane omkhulu wezinhlobo ezingaziwa futhi ama-sonar echoes aqoqwe angaphakamisa ukunyakaza okuqhathaniswa nama-eels, kwaphinde kwaphawulwa ukuthi ukubonakala kwenziwa ngokungcono phezulu, lapho amanzi efudumele. , lokhu kungase kuhambisane ngokuphelele nokuziphatha kwenhlanzi engezansi.
I-Nessie, isilwane esibi se-Loch Ness, esinye sezidalwa zasendulo ezithandwa kakhulu futhi ezaziwa kakhulu emhlabeni, kungaba i-eel enkulu, ngakho-ke hhayi i-plesiosaur, isilwane esihuquzelayo sangaphambi komlando, hhayi i-dinosaur, enqunywa izintamo ezinde nemilenze efana nama-paddles kanye nama-paddles. Ikakhulukazi ushaka omkhulu, i-sturgeon noma i-catfish, njengoba ivela kwezinye izinto ezicatshangelwayo.
Ukusikisela ukuthi uNessie angaba i-eel enkulu kwakungabacwaningi abavela emanyuvesi amaningana ezweni, abenze ukuhlaziya okujulile kwe-DNA eqoqwe ku-loch, umgodi omkhulu wamanzi ahlanzekile otholakala e-Highlands of Scotland.
Ososayensi, abahlanganiswe isazi sofuzo u-Neil Gemmell, bahlele uhambo oluya e- IChibi Ness ukuthatha amasampula e-DNA kusuka phansi futhi awahlaziye elabhorethri, ngale ndlela bekungenzeka ukugqamisa iphrofayili yofuzo ecatshangelwayo yesidalwa esiyinganekwane, ngaphezu kwalokho kwezilwane "ezivamile" ezihlala echibini nasezindaweni ezizungezile. izindawo ezizungezile.
Ngokumangazayo, akukho mkhondo we-plesiosaur noma enye i-DNA yezilwane ezihuquzelayo zangaphambi komlando ezitholakele, noma kunjalo kutholakale inqwaba ye-eel DNA, cishe kuzo zonke izindawo zechibi eziphenyiwe, kungase kubonakale sengathi akuzona izindaba, ngoba ubuningi bama-eel U-Loch Ness uyaziwa.
Kodwa-ke, ukutholwa kuvuselele inkolelo-mbono endala mayelana nobunikazi balesi silo, esigcinwe lapho i-"Jurassic" ingena enganekwaneni.
Ngemva kokubonwa okokuqala ngasekuqaleni kwawo-1930, eqinisweni, kwakukhulunywa ngembongolo enkulu engaba khona, inkolelo-mbono eyasekelwa ukubona "inyoka yasolwandle" enkulu eLake Leurbost ngo-1865, okumele ngabe kwakuyimbozane eyodwa ncamashi.
Ukuhlanganisa nje?
Yilokho abantu abaningi abakucabangayo, nokho, ukuthi izindaba ezifanayo zitholakala kwezinye izindawo ezihlala emagumbini ahlukene eplanethi yethu, mayelana nezilo ezihlala emachibini ase-Ireland, kunemibiko ehlehlela emuva ekhulwini le-XNUMX.
Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi imihlangano nabo ngezinye izikhathi iyenzeka emanzini amancane, njengesibonelo, iLa Fadda e-Helvey County, engafinyeleli ubude obuyi-2.5 km, kuma-akhawunti owazibonela ngawabo izilo zase-Ireland kunemininingwane emibili ephindaphinda njalo isithakazelo.
Okokuqala, ofakazi abaningi bathi amakhanda ezilo zifana namahhashi futhi izidalwa ngokwazo azihlali emanzini kuphela, kodwa zikhululekile kakhulu emhlabathini, emi njengezindlebe zehhashi, kufana nesidalwa esinezimpondo ezimbili, esithathwe nguRaines. njengoLoch Ness.
Kodwa okuthakazelisayo nakakhulu ukuthi lezi zici ezimbili zezilo zase-Ireland zisikhumbuza kakhulu ama-kelpies, okukhulunywa ngawo kakhulu entshonalanga yeScotland.
Kungenzeka ukuthi abantu abavela e-Ireland beza eScotland ngekhulu lesi-XNUMX nelesi-XNUMX beza nezindaba mayelana nezilo noma kukhona enye inguqulo, njengoba i-Ireland ihlukaniswa neScotland ngomugqa omncane wolwandle, izilwane azizange zibize lutho. ukuyinqoba, kodwa eScotland, asebengasekho.
Kuze kube muva nje, lapho benza imibono nge-monster, abantu bathembele kuphela ezithombeni noma ezindabeni ezingahleliwe, nokho, ngenxa yenqubo entsha, kwaba nokwenzeka ukutadisha zonke izinhlobo zokuphila ku-monster. IChibi Ness ngokuqoqa i-DNA yemvelo.
I-Ecological DNA iyingxenye yofuzo ekhona kumaseli ezinto eziphilayo futhi ikhishwe endaweni yazo, ukuqoqwa kanye nokuhlonza i-ecological DNA kusiza ukusungula izinhlobo zezinto eziphilayo ezihlala endaweni ngaphandle kokuzibheka noma ukuzibamba.

ubufakazi obusolwayo
Isazi sofuzo, uProfessor Neil Gemmell umemezele ngoSepthemba 5, 2019 "esinye isihloko emlandweni we-Loch Ness", unyaka owodwa uGemmell uthole amasampula amanzi endaweni ekujuleni okuhlukene, ngamasampula angama-250, akhipha kuwo izigidi ezingama-500. Ukulandelana kwe-DNA.
Zabe sezihlaziywa ukuze kufakwe ikhathalogi yezinhlobo zokuphila ezikhona e-Loch Ness, njengezitshalo, izinambuzane, izinhlanzi, izilwane ezincelisayo nanoma yiziphi izilo, ososayensi bathole izinhlobo ezicishe zibe ngu-3.000, okuhlanganisa i-DNA yomuntu neyezilwane exhunywe ukuba khona komuntu nemisebenzi. , izinja, izimvu, izinkomo.
Kwabe sekuba khona i-DNA yezilwane zasendle zendawo njengezinyamazane, amabheji, onogwaja, izimpungushe, nezinhlobo eziningi zezinyoni. ithole inani elibalulekile le-eel DNA kulo lonke echibini.
Kuthiwani uma inunu IChibi Ness akukho okudlula umbokwane omkhulu? UGemmell uveza ukuthi akwenzeki ukulandelela usayizi wama-eels ocwaningweni, kodwa lokho akusho ukuthi amanye amakhulu kakhulu.
Izinkulungwane zokubonwa zirekhodiwe kusukela ngo-565 AD ngenkathi kukhulunywa lesi silo okokuqala, eziningi zazo ezibhalwe kuRejista Esemthethweni ye-Loch Ness Monster Sightings, ngo-2019 kwaba nerekhodi lokubonwa, inani eliyi-18, kusukela ngo-1983 abaningi kangaka balotshiwe.
Ngokusho kongoti bakule ndawo, sebenyukile isibalo sababonwayo ngoba Izinga lokushisa kanye Nomswakama kufudumala futhi balethe i-monster ebusweni kaningi, beshiya indawo yabo yokucasha ezindaweni ezijulile zechibi.
Inganekwane yezinsuku zethu, nokho, ihlehlela emuva kuMeyi 2, 1933, lapho u-Alex Campbell, intatheli yendawo ye-Inverness Post, ebika ngokubonwa kwalesi silwane ngabanikazi behhotela kwesinye semizana eduze nechibi, izindaba zavusa imizwa futhi zakhipha uchungechunge lobufakazi bokubonwa kwangaphambilini.
Kungalesi sikhathi futhi lapho umphathi womshwalense, uSir Edward Mountain, enquma khona ukuxhasa ngezimali uhambo lokuqala lokuyofuna lesi silo, esihlanganisa amadoda angu-20 okuzodingeka alawule ichibi ezindaweni ezihlukahlukene zamasu, ngamakhamera nama-binoculars, kusukela kulokhu. sithola okubonwayo kanye nevidiyo.
Kodwa empeleni, bonke ubufakazi obutholakalayo buba bungavumelani ngokuhamba kwesikhathi: Abashade noMacKay baveza, eminyakeni embalwa kamuva, ukuthi "benehaba": unkosikazi, eqinisweni, wembula ukuthi umyeni wakhe wayengaboni lutho ngoba wayeshayela, ngenkathi ebona amanzi enyakaza, njengalapho amadada amabili elwa.
Iqiniso liwukuthi, ngemva kombiko wokuqala wokubonwa, ihhotela lakhe laphila inkathi yegolide ngenxa yabantu abaningi ababenelukuluku ababeya endaweni ukuyobheka lesi silo.
Isithombe esitholwe nguWetherell
Ngawo-1930, umzingeli omkhulu wezilwane u-Marmaduk Wetherell waya kuye IChibi Ness ukubheka inunu. U-Wetherell wathi uthole izinkomba, kodwa lapho izinkomba zemikhondo zithunyelwa kososayensi ukuze zihlaziywe, lo mgilingwane wasebenzisa isambulela esenziwe ngezinyawo zemvubu.
Ngo-1933, inganekwane yesilo sase-Loch Ness yaqala ukuthuthuka, ngaleso sikhathi, kwaqedwa umgwaqo ohlanganisa i-Loch Ness, onikeza umbono ongenakuvinjelwa we-loch, ngo-April, umbhangqwana wabona isilwane esesabekayo, abasithatha njengesilwane. "udrako wangaphambi komlando noma i-monster" ngemuva kokungena endleleni yemoto yakhe, wanyamalala emanzini.
Lesi sigameko sabikwa ephephandabeni laseScotland futhi kwalandela inqwaba yemibono, ngoDisemba 1933 ukhomishana weDaily Mail uMarmaduke Wetherell, umzingeli omkhulu wezilwane, ukuze athole inyoka yasolwandle, ogwini lwe-loch, wathola izinyathelo ezinkulu akholelwa ukuthi zingezabo. "esilwaneni esinamandla kakhulu esinezinyawo ezithambile esingaba amafidi angu-20 namamitha angu-6 ubude."
Nokho, lapho sihlolisisa, izazi zesayensi yezilwane e-Natural History Museum zathola ukuthi izinyathelo zezinyawo zazifana futhi zenziwe ngethreyi lomlotha elalinonyawo lwemvubu njengesisekelo salo, indima kaWetherell kulo buqili yayingacacile.
Kwaze kwaba ngo-1994 lapho uchungechunge lwezambulo lwaveza indaba eyiqiniso ngemuva 'kwesithombe sikadokotela ohlinzayo' - lesi sidalwa, empeleni, sasiyimodeli eyakhiwe phezu komkhumbi-ngwenya wethoyizi, ingxenye yenkohliso eyindida eyenziwa umzingeli omkhulu wezilwane. okuthiwa uMarmaduke Wetherell.
Isithombe esitholwe nguRobert Rines
Ngo-1972, ithimba labacwaningi abavela e-Academy of Applied Sciences, eholwa nguRobert G. Rines, lenza uphenyo lokufuna inunu ngokuhlolwa okujulile kwe IChibi Ness ngifuna izinhlanzi ukubona umsebenzi ongajwayelekile. U-Rines uthathe izinyathelo zokuphepha ukuze agweme amanzi aguquguqukayo kusuka ku-driftwood kanye ne-peat.
Ikhamera engaphansi kwamanzi enesibani sokusesha yasetshenziswa ukuze irekhode izithombe ngaphansi kwendawo, uma u-Rines ethola okuthile ku-sonar, ukhanyisa isibani futhi athathe isithombe.
Ngomhla ziyisi-8 ku-Agasti, iyunithi ye-Sonar ye-Rines esebenza kwimvamisa engu-200 kHz kanye nehange ekujuleni okungamamitha angu-11 (36 amafidi) ahlonzwe into eqondiwe enyakazayo (noma okuqondiwe) yalinganisela ukushuba kwe-echo ukusuka kumafidi angama-6 kuye kwangama-9. (20 kuya ku-30 amamitha) ubude.
Ochwepheshe bakwa-Raytheon uSimrad woMnyango we-Ira Dyer we-Massachusetts Institute of Technology Ocean Engineering babekhona ukuze baqinisekise idatha ye-Raytheon, okuholele ekuqhumeni okuphumayo okungamafidi angu-3 kusignali eyodwa ye-echo. Ngokusho kombhali, u-Roy Mackal, ukwakheka "kwakuwumsila ogobile ogobekayo" noma ungafundi kahle ukubuya kwezilwane ezimbili ezibhukuda ndawonye.
Kanye nokufundwa kwe-sonar, ikhamera ekhanyisiwe ithole izithombe ezimbalwa zangaphansi kwamanzi. Kuye kwaboniswa ukuthi kubonakala sengathi i-rhomboid fin, nakuba izithombe ezingaphansi kwechibi, amabhamuza omoya, amatshe noma izimpiko zenqatshwa ngabangabazayo, kusobala ukuthi i-fin yathwetshulwa ezindaweni ezihlukahlukene, ebonisa ukunyakaza.
Isithombe sokuqala se-fin saziwa kangcono kunesesibili futhi zombili zakhuliswa futhi zaphinde zathintwa kusuka kuma-negatives asekuqaleni, ngokusho kwelungu leqembu uCharles Wyckoff, izithombe ziphinde zathintwa, ukuthuthukiswa kwasekuqaleni kubonise into engacacile kakhulu, akekho oqinisekile ukuthi okwangempela kwashintshwa.
