Comparing community structure on shells of the abalone Haliotis midae and adjacent rock: implications for biodiversity
(Springer Verlag, 2013)This paper concerns the effects on biodiversity of depletion 24 of the South African abalone Haliotis midae, which is a long-lived species with a large corrugated shell that provides a habitat for diverse benthic organisms. ... -
Comparing galaxy clustering in horizon-agn simulated light-cone mocks and video observations
(Oxford University Press, 2019-04-12)Hydrodynamical cosmological simulations have recently made great advances in reproducing galaxy mass assembly over cosmic time – as often quantified from the comparison of their predicted stellar mass functions to observed ... -

Comparing patient-based outcomes related to neutral zone and conventional mandibular dentures: A systematic review
(South African Dental Association, 2017)Neutral zone mandibular dentures are considered tobe superior to conventional complete dentures.Conventional complete dentures (CD) have been the most common and only treatment modality for rehabilitation of edentulousness until ... -
Comparing patients’ experiences in three differentiated service delivery models for HIV treatment in South Africa
(SAGE Publications, 2022)Differentiated service delivery for HIV treatment seeks to enhance medication adherence while respecting the preferences of people living with HIV. Nevertheless, patients’ experiences of using these differentiated service ... -
Comparing the application of the islamic law of succession and administration of estates in Singapore and South Africa
(Researchgate, 2020-04)This article investigates how the Islamic law of succession and administration of estates is applied in Singapore and South Africa with regard to the “Islamic will”. This kind of will includes a provision where the testator ... -
Comparing the technological literacy of pre-service teachers and secondary school students in South Africa
(IATED, 2012)Technology education was introduced for the first time after the abolition of Apartheid in South Africa in 1994. The technology curriculum required that students become technologically literate. However, in order for ... -
A comparison between the anthropological and modern day uses of this indigenous herb
(Conference: SA Medical Research Council 6th Annual Research Conference, 2012)Sceletium tortuosum (Fig. 1) is a scrambling succulent ground cover indigenous to the Western and Eastern Cape. It has probably been used for centuries as a mood-altering drug, especially by the Khoisan hunters and Nama ... -

comparison of aerosolized hydrogen peroxide fogging with a conventional disinfection product for a dental surgery
(PMID, 2020)The study aimed to determine the efficacy of adding a 12% hydrogen peroxide dry hydrogen peroxide vapor fogger system as an additional layer of infection control in a dental surgery. -
Comparison of CO2 capture by ex-situ accelerated carbonation and in in-situ naturally weathered coal fly ash
(Elsevier, 2013)Natural weathering at coal power plants ash dams occurs via processes such as carbonation, dissolution, co-precipitation and fluid transport mechanisms which are responsible for the long-term chemical, physical and geochemical ... -
Comparison of colour components between maxillary central incisors - an in vivo study
(South African Dental Association, 2015)Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of colour in the CIE L a b scale between the maxillary central incisors. Methods: The colour of the maxillary central incisors of 83 patients was ... -
A Comparison of deep learning architectures for optical galaxy morphology classification
(International Conference on Electrical, Computer and Energy Technologies (ICECET), 2021)The classification of galaxy morphology plays a crucial role in understanding galaxy formation and evolution. Traditionally, this process is done manually. The emergence of deep learning techniques has given room for the ... -
A comparison of Einstein-Boltzmann solvers for testing General Relativity
(American Physical Society, 2018)We compare Einstein-Boltzmann solvers that include modifications to General Relativity and find that, for a wide range of models and parameters, they agree to a high level of precision. We look at three general purpose codes ... -
A comparison of ensemble and deep learning algorithms to model groundwater levels in a data-scarce aquifer of Southern Africa
(MDPI, 2022)Machine learning and deep learning have demonstrated usefulness in modelling various groundwater phenomena. However, these techniques require large amounts of data to develop reliable models. In the Southern African ... -
Comparison of Hi and optical redshifts of galaxies - The impact of redshift uncertainties on spectral line stacking
(Oxford University Press, 2013)Accurate optical redshifts will be critical for spectral co-adding techniques used to extract detections from below the noise level in ongoing and upcoming surveys for Hi, which will extend our current understanding of ... -
A comparison of multi-phase magnetic field tracers in a high-galactic latitude region of the filamentary interstellar medium
(IOP Publishing, 2022)Understanding how the Galactic magnetic field threads the multiphase interstellar medium (ISM) remains a considerable challenge, as different magnetic field tracers probe dissimilar phases and field components. We search for ... -
Comparison of multifactor asset pricing models in the South African stock market [2000–2016]
(MDPI, 2023)The quest for parsimonious models has been a key objective in asset pricing. However, there appears to be no consensus on the most successful asset pricing strategy in the literature, especially for the South African ... -
