Ngaphezulu kweminyaka eli-10 eyadlulayo, iGlacier National Park yabeka imiqondiso elumkisa ukuba umkhenkce wayo omkhenkce omangalisayo uza kube ungasekho ngo-2020. Unyaka uqalile kwaye Umkhenkce zisekhona, kodwa isoyikiso sokutshintsha kwemozulu sihleli sisibi.
Yiyo loo nto ipaki yaseMontana ngoku ithatha indawo yezo mpawu.
Ukuba ziya kuthi shwaka nini zixhomekeke kwindlela esisebenza ngayo nangexesha lethu. Inye into ehambelana: Umkhenkce epakini uyancipha, kufunda imiqondiso emitsha, ngoku ka CNN .
Ipaki yeGlacier National Park Undwendwe lwepaki, oluboniswe kwindawo enye njengefoto yowe-1920, olujonga utshintsho olwenziwe kwiGlinnell glacier kule minyaka ingama-90 idlulileyo. | Ityala: Inkonzo yeSizwe yePaki){kind=link}
Iimpawu zokuqala zabekwa ngaphezulu kweminyaka eli-10 eyadlulayo ngokusekwe kuqikelelo olwenziwe yiU.S. Geological Survey, utshilo usomlomo wepaki uGina Kurzmen. CNN . Kwiminyaka emithathu edlulileyo, ipaki yaxelelwa ukuba uqikelelo luye lwatshintsha, kodwa uthungelwano luxele ukuba akukho bhajethi yokutshintsha iimpawu esele zifakiwe.
Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, iiplacards zihlaziyiwe kwipaki yaseSt. Mary yeZiko leeNdwendwe, ngelixa uKurzmen esithi ipaki ilinde ugunyaziso lohlahlo-lwabiwo mali lokuhlaziya ezinye.
UDan Fagre, usosayensi okhokelayo kuphononongo luka-2017 olukhutshwe yi-USGS kunye neYunivesithi yasePortland State, uthe ezinye zeMontana glaciers zalahleka iipesenti ezingama-85 zobukhulu bazo, nge-average shrinkage yeepesenti ezingama-39.

Ipaki yeSizwe yeGlacier ayisiyiyo kuphela indawo ehlangabezana nokuncipha komkhenkce kunye notshintsho olukhulu. Uphononongo olupapashwe kunyaka ophelileyo lufumanise ukuba eyona ice indala kunye neyona inkulu eArctic inyibilika kabini ngokukhawuleza njengomnye umkhenkce kuLwandlekazi iArctic.
Ukunyibilika komkhenkce kuye kwaveza izinto ezingakhange zibonwe kumawaka eminyaka. NgoJanuwari 2019, ukunyibilika komkhenkce kwiCanada Arctic kutyhila izityalo ezazifihliwe ubuncinci iminyaka engama-40,000, kwaye ngo-Okthobha, umkhosi waselwandle waseRussia wafumanisa iziqithi ezintlanu ezintsha ngenxa yokunyibilika komkhenkce.
