- US Space Agency NASA yapereka mgwirizano ku University of Michigan pa Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) yantchito ndi pafupi.
- Ndi gulu la ma microsatellites asanu ndi atatu, dongosololi limatha kuwona mkuntho pafupipafupi ndipo m'njira zomwe satelayiti sangakwanitse, kukulitsa kuthekera kwa asayansi kumvetsetsa ndikulosera zamkuntho.
- Mtengo wonse wamgwirizanowu ndi pafupifupi $ 39 miliyoni. CYGNSS Science Operations Center ili ku University of Michigan.
Kwa zaka makumi ambiri, NASA yatenga gawo lotsogola pakugwiritsa ntchito ma satellite owonera Dziko lapansi kuti atolere zidziwitso zofunika kudyetsa mitundu yolosera zam'mlengalenga. CYGNSS ikupitilizabe kugwira ntchitoyi, pogwiritsa ntchito njira yakuzindikira yakutali yotchedwa "GPS kumwaza" kuti muwone kudzera mumvula yamphamvu kuyerekezera kulimba kwa mphepo yapamtunda mkati mwa mphepo zamkuntho.
"CYGNSS yakhala ntchito yopanga upainiya yomwe yatipatsa kuzindikira kwatsopano kwamphamvu zakukulitsa mvula zamkuntho," atero a Karen St. Germain, wamkulu wa Earth Science Division ya NASA. "CYGNSS ndichida chothandiza popezera madzi osefukira pamtunda ndi m'nyanja zazing'ono - ndiwo mtundu wowonjezera womwe timakonda kuwona, ndipo ukupangira njira sayansi yambiri yomwe ingathandizire anthu."
Kuyeza kochokera ku CYGNSS ndikofunikira pakufufuza pakukula kwa ma algorithm, kusanthula kuti zithandizire pakuwunika kwamtsogolo, ndi maphunziro a dongosolo la Earth.
Ntchito zina zithandizira kuti kafukufuku watsopano ayang'ane pakusintha kwanyengo kwakutali ndikuwonjezera kukula kwa zitsanzo za zochitika zowopsa zomwe zitha kuthandiza pakuwonetseratu komanso kulosera. Ma satelayiti a CYGNSS akupitilizabe kutenga mphepo ya 24/7 ya mphepo yam'nyanja, yapadziko lonse lapansi komanso yamkuntho yamkuntho, yomwe itha kugwiritsidwa ntchito kuphunzira momwe nyengo ikuyendera ndikukonzanso kuneneratu kwa nyengo. Pamtunda, ma satelayiti amatenga madzi osefukira mosalekeza komanso chinyezi cha nthaka chomwe chimagwiritsidwa ntchito pophunzira za hydrological process komanso kuwunikira ngozi.
ZOMWE MUNGACHITE PA NKHANIYI:
- "CYGNSS ndi chida champhamvu chozindikira madzi osefukira pamtunda ndi nyanja yam'madzi - ndi mtundu wamtengo wapatali womwe timakonda kuwona, ndipo ukutsegulira njira ya sayansi yochulukirapo yomwe ingakhale ndi phindu lalikulu kwa anthu.
- Ndi kuwundana kwa ma microsatellites asanu ndi atatu, dongosololi limatha kuwona mvula yamkuntho pafupipafupi komanso mwanjira yachikhalidwe ma satelayiti sangathe, kukulitsa asayansi.
- Ma satellites a CYGNSS akupitilizabe kuyesa miyeso 24/7 ya mphepo zamkuntho zapanyanja, padziko lonse lapansi komanso mkuntho zamkuntho, zomwe zitha kugwiritsidwa ntchito pophunzira zanyengo ndikuwongolera zolosera zanyengo.
