LIJUE ZIWA NGOSI

​

Ziwa Ngosi (pia Ngozi) linapatikana kwenye milima ya Uporoto, Mkoa wa Mbeya nyanda za juu kusini mwaTanzania. Ziwa hili limetokana na mlipuko wa volkeno, hivyo ni tofauti na maziwa mengine kama Ziwa Viktoria au Ziwa Nyasa. Upekee wa ziwa hili ni kwamba liko ndani ya kasoko ya mlima Ngozi na katikati ya misitu na lina urefuwa km 2.5, upana wake ni km 1.5, kinachake ni mita 74 na lina ukubwa wahektari 9332.

Maajabu mengine katika ziwa hili ni kwamba maji ya Ziwa Ngozi huwa lina muonekano wa rangi tofauti tofauti kila wakati, kuna wakati ukifika unakuta ziwa lina rangi ya samawati, kijani au nyeusi. Ni kwamba uwepo wa misitu husababisha rangi ya maji kubadilika na upande wa jua linapowaka.

Ndege hupendelea kuogelea pamoja na aina fulani ya bata huwa wanaogelea humo kwa wingi na kufanya ziwa kuwa na muonekano wa kupendeza zaidi.

Licha ya kuwa ziwa hilo linavutia kuangalia lakini halina samaki wala kuwa na historia ya uwepo wake na vilevile si rafiki kwa kuogelea

Enzi hizo liliwahi kuleta mjadala mkubwa hapa hapa JF

Lake Ngozi (Ziwa Ngozi) na simulizi za ajabu

Ziwa hili liko Mbeya kwenye milima ya Uporoto. Linatajwa kuwa ni ziwa la pili kwa ukubwa katika maziwa yanayopatikana kwenye kreta Afrika. Wenyeji wanalihusisha ziwa hili na imani za kishirikina. Wanadai lilipigwa mawe na likahamishwa kutoka Masoko Tukuyu na kwenda kujikita Uporoto.

A crater is a bowl-shaped depression, or hollowed-out area, produced by the impact of a meteorite, volcanic activity, or an explosion.

Impact Craters
Craters produced by the collision of a meteorite with the Earth (or another planet or moon) are called impact craters. The high-speed impact of a large meteorite compresses, or forces downward, a wide area of rock. The pressure pulverizes the rock. Almost immediately after the strike, however, the pulverized rock rebounds. Enormous amounts of shattered material jet upward, while a wide, circular crater forms where the rock once lay. Most of the material falls around the rim of the newly formed crater.

The Earth’s moon has many craters. Most were formed when meteors, bodies of solid matter from space, slammed into the lunar surface millions of years ago. Because the moon has almost no atmosphere, there is hardly any wind, erosion, or weathering. Craters and debris, called ejecta, from millions of years ago are still crystal-clear on the moon’s surface. Many of these craters are landmarks. Craters on the moon are named after everyone from American astronaut Buzz Aldrin to ancient Greek philosopher Zeno.

Many impact craters are found on the Earth’s surface, although they can be harder to detect. One of the best-known craters on Earth is Meteor Crater, near Winslow, Arizona. The crater was created instantly when a 50-meter (164-foot), 150,000-ton meteorite slammed into the desert about 50,000 years ago. Meteor Crater is 1.2 kilometers (0.75 miles) in diameter and 175 meters (575 feet) deep.

The Chicxulub Crater, on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, was most likely created by a comet or asteroid that hit Earth about 65 million years ago. The crater is 180 kilometers (112 miles) wide and 900 meters (3,000 feet) deep. The object that created the Chicxulub Crater was probably about 10 kilometers (6 miles) wide.

The impact was so powerful the crater is called the Chicxulub Extinction Event Crater. Scientists say half the species on Earth—including the dinosaurs—went extinct as a result of the impact. The event was more than a billion times more explosive than all the atomic bombs ever detonated on Earth.

Impact craters are found on most of the solar system’s rocky planets and moons. The so-called “gas giants” of the solar system—Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—don’t have craters. These planets are made up almost entirely of gases, so there is no hard surface for a meteor to impact. Meteors entering the atmosphere of a gas giant simply break up.

Cratering is a rare occurrence in the solar system today. Planets, moons, comets, and other celestial bodies have fairly stable orbits that do not interact with each other. Meteors do collide with planets—including Earth—every day. However, most of these meteors are the size of a speck of dust and do not cause any cratering. Most meteors burn up in the atmosphere as “shooting stars” before ever colliding with the surface of the Earth.

Volcanic Craters

Volcanic activity often creates craters. Some volcanic craters are deep and have steep sides. Others are wide and shallow.

A crater is not the same thing as a caldera. Craters are formed by the outward explosion of rocks and other materials from a volcano. Calderas are formed by the inward collapse of a volcano’s magma chamber. Craters are usually much smaller features than calderas, and calderas are sometimes considered giant craters.

Craters at the top of volcanoes are called summit craters. Summit craters are where volcanic material is at or near the Earth’s surface. Volcanoes may have one summit crater, such as Mount Fuji in Japan. Or they may have several. Mount Etna, in Italy, has four.

Some volcanoes are calm enough that scientists can get close to the lava in the summit crater. Mount Erebus, a volcano in Antarctica, has a lava lake in its summit crater. Lava lakes are where magma has bubbled up to the surface. Volcanologists can fly over Mount Erebus’ summit crater to see how the lava lake is behaving and predict future behavior.

Volcanic material in some summit craters is near the surface, but not visible. Although Mount Fuji is an active volcano and magma and gases sit below the summit crater, the risk of an eruption is very low. Mount Fuji, Japan’s highest mountain, is one of the most popular places in the country to hike.

Craters that form on the sides of volcanoes are called flank craters. Eruptions from flank craters can be much more dangerous than eruptions from summit craters. Flank craters can form at lower altitudes than summit craters, near hillside towns. Lava, gas, rocks, and other material ejected from a flank crater can rush down the side of a mountain in a phenomenon called a pyroclastic flow. Mount Etna, one of the most active volcanoes in Europe, has had a number of dangerous eruptions. In 1928, the eruption of a flank crater completely destroyed the village of Mascali.

Over a long period of time, small and non-explosive eruptions may fill a volcanic crater with new material. At Mount St. Helens, in the U.S. state of Washington, for example, a large crater formed when a major eruption in 1980 tore off 400 meters (1,300 feet) of the mountaintop. Soon after, smaller eruptions began piling up lava and volcanic ash on the crater floor, slowly rebuilding the mountain.

Volcanoes can also create craters when the magma comes into contact with water. Magma flowing or bubbling beneath a volcano can sometimes interact with groundwater in the area. When this happens, a small explosion occurs and a crater forms around the explosion. This type of volcanic crater is called a maar.

Often, a maar will fill with water and become a shallow crater lake. The thin floors of these lakes are actually the roofs of volcanic vents, waiting to come into explosive contact with water once again. The Seward Peninsula, in the U.S. state of Alaska, is filled with maars that form as magma encounters not groundwater, but permafrost.

Explosion Craters

A third type of crater is formed by an explosion. When materials or chemicals explode, the explosion displaces all the material around it. The debris often lands in a circular pattern around the site of the explosion, creating a crater.

Explosions can be natural or artificial. The explosion that creates a maar, for example, occurs naturally when water interacts with superhot magma from a volcano. Maars are a type of explosion crater as well as a volcanic crater.

Artificial explosions that form craters usually happen underground. The explosion pulverizes or vaporizes material underground, and the earth above sinks. Craters formed by underground explosions are called subsidence craters. (Craters formed by explosions at or near the surface of the Earth are simply called explosion craters.)

Drilling underground for oil and natural gas can lead to explosions and subsidence craters. Machinery can sometimes encounter a pocket of natural gas that is under extremely high pressure. When drilling machinery punctures the pocket of natural gas, the overlying rock layers may not be able to contain it. Like an enormous balloon, the gas pocket pops. As the gas is released in the explosion, a crater forms in the empty space.

A specific type of subsidence crater is formed by an underground nuclear explosion. Most nuclear testing is conducted in underground facilities. As the explosion displaces massive amounts of material, the earth above it sinks. In fact, subsidence craters caused by underground nuclear explosions are sometimes called sinks. The Nevada Test Site, in the remote deserts of the U.S. state of Nevada, is pockmarked with nuclear subsidence craters.

The debris in and around nuclear subsidence craters often comes into contact with radioactive material. For this reason, access to these sites is restricted.
Finding Craters
Although impact craters are found all around the world, they can be very hard to detect. Before the widespread use of aerial and satellite imagery, many craters went undetected. One of the reasons Meteor Crater is so well-known is because the stark Arizona desert makes it an obvious feature of the area’s physical geography.

The forces of wind, rivers, precipitation, for instance, can scrape away evidence of a crater. Some areas are also geologically complex, where a meteor’s impact may be more pronounced among some rocks and less by others. Some rocks are also more vulnerable to the forces of weathering and erosion. These forces can mask the traditional circular pattern of an impact crater.

Spider Crater, Western Australia, for example, is an unusual feature that puzzled geologists until the 1970s. The winding series of chasms and ridges radiating from a central area resemble a giant arachnid, not a circular crater. Geologists were able to identify Spider as an impact crater only after looking at rocks unearthed from the feature’s central region. There, they discovered shatter cones, rare rocks that only form in the bedrock beneath impact craters.

Landscape and vegetation can also hide impact craters. The largest impact crater in the United States, for instance, was unknown until the 1980s. The Chesapeake Bay impact crater was hidden beneath the muddy waters of the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean for about 35 million years. The submarine crater, discovered through oil drilling exploration, was, like Spider Crater, marked by rocks only found at impact craters.

Makhteshim
A makhtesh is a type of circular depression only found in the Negev Desert of Israel. Although often called craters, makhteshim are not created by explosions or impacts. They are created by the process of erosion wearing away softer rocks underlying a harder upper layer. The upper layer ultimately collapses under its own weight, forming a bowl-shaped depression that resembles a crater.
Bacteria Will SurviveYou Wont
The impact of a meteorite that would result in the creation of a Chicxulub-sized crater is something astronomers call an extinction-level event (ELE) or biotic crisis. Meteorites are just one possible cause of an ELE. ELEs have happened more than a dozen times in Earths history.

Extinction-level events actually have little effect on Earths biodiversity. Most life on Earth is microbial. Microbes, such as bacteria and algae, are not significantly affected by ELEs. Its only the larger life formstrees, dinosaurs, peoplethat face biotic crises.
Rampart Craters
Some craters on Mars hint that liquid water was probably present at some point in the planet's past. Rampart craters are a type of impact crater found only on Mars. Unlike craters on the moon, where debris, called ejecta, from the impact is spread out in neat lines, rampart craters show ejecta curving out in smooth, flowing lineslike a mudflow. Rampart craters look more like splashes than explosions.

LIJUE ZIWA NGOSI​

Ziwa Ngosi (pia Ngozi) linapatikana kwenye milima ya Uporoto, Mkoa wa Mbeya nyanda za juu kusini mwaTanzania. Ziwa hili limetokana na mlipuko wa volkeno, hivyo ni tofauti na maziwa mengine kama Ziwa Viktoria au Ziwa Nyasa. Upekee wa ziwa hili ni kwamba liko ndani ya kasoko ya mlima Ngozi na katikati ya misitu na lina urefuwa km 2.5, upana wake ni km 1.5, kinachake ni mita 74 na lina ukubwa wahektari 9332.

Maajabu mengine katika ziwa hili ni kwamba maji ya Ziwa Ngozi huwa lina muonekano wa rangi tofauti tofauti kila wakati, kuna wakati ukifika unakuta ziwa lina rangi ya samawati, kijani au nyeusi. Ni kwamba uwepo wa misitu husababisha rangi ya maji kubadilika na upande wa jua linapowaka.

Ndege hupendelea kuogelea pamoja na aina fulani ya bata huwa wanaogelea humo kwa wingi na kufanya ziwa kuwa na muonekano wa kupendeza zaidi.

Licha ya kuwa ziwa hilo linavutia kuangalia lakini halina samaki wala kuwa na historia ya uwepo wake na vilevile si rafiki kwa kuogelea

Ngoja nitembelee mbeya nipige picha niwaletee

Usisumbuke kwenda mbeya Mkuu, nimekuwekea hiyo picha hapo, kwa kweli ni ziwa la tofauti, ukiangalia lina muonekano kama wa ramani ya africa, lakini pia nilisikia pia Mzee mmoja akisimulia kwamba pale ukiingia kuogelea unaweza kupotelea humo, sijui ikoje hapo.

Kwanini sio rafiki Kwa kuogelea? nafikiri hapa kuna kitu kikubwa cha kutusimulia

na je hakuna mamba mkuu?

Si rafiki kutokana na kina chake, ziwa linatokana na volukano hivyo liko kama ndoo yaani ziwa na ardhi vinapokutana kina chake ni kirefu sana tofauti na bahati unayoweza kutembea nusu kilomita maji bado kukufika kiunoni. Niliwahi kulitembelea lakini hatukuweza kuteremka kwenda kuyashika maji japo tulipiga kambi siku mbili, ziwa hili halina mto unaoingiza wala kutoa maji na linafanana na ziwa Masoko ambalo nalo liko Rungwe (siyo mzee wa ubwabwa).
