Hunting down horizon-scale effects with multi-wavelength surveys
(American Astronomical Society, 2015)Next-generation cosmological surveys will probe ever larger volumes of the universe, including the largest scales, near and beyond the horizon. On these scales, the galaxy power spectrum carries signatures of local primordial ... -
A hybrid digital parenting programme to prevent abuse of adolescents in Tanzania: study protocol for a pragmatic cluster-randomised controlled trial
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2024)Background- Evidence-based parenting programmes have strong evidence in preventing and mitigating violence, but in-person programmes are challenging to deliver at scale. ParentApp is an open-source, offline-first app-based ... -
Hybrid P` (k): General, unified, non-linear matter power spectrum in redshift space
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020)Constraints on gravity and cosmology will greatly benefit from performing joint clustering and weak lensing analyses on large-scale structure data sets. Utilising non-linear information coming from small physical scales ... -
Hydra I: An extensible multi-source-finder comparison and cataloguing tool
(Cambridge University Press, 2023)The latest generation of radio surveys are now producing sky survey images containing many millions of radio sources. In this context it is highly desirable to understand the performance of radio image source finder (SF) ... -
Hydra ii: Characterisation of Aegean, Caesar, profound, pybdsf, and selavy source finders
(Cambridge University Press, 2023)We present a comparison between the performance of a selection of source finders using a new software tool called Hydra. The companion paper, Paper I, introduced the Hydra tool and demonstrated its performance using ... -
HYDRIDE4MOBILITY: An EU horizon 2020 project on hydrogen powered fuel cell utility vehicles using metal hydrides in hydrogen storage and refuelling systems
(Elsevier, 2021)The goal of the EU Horizon 2020 RISE project 778307 “Hydrogen fuelled utility vehicles and their support systems utilising metal hydrides” (HYDRIDE4MOBILITY), is in addressing critical issues towards a commercial ... -
Hydrides of Laves type Ti–Zr alloys with enhanced H storage capacity as advanced metal hydride battery anodes
(Elsevier, 2020)The present work was focused on the studies of the effect of variation of stoichiometric composition of Ti–Zr based AB2±x Laves phase alloys by changing the ratio between A (Ti + Zr) and B (Mn + V + Fe + Ni) components ... -
Hydrocarbon generation and migration from Barremian – Aptian source rocks, Northern Orange Basin, offshore Western South Africa: A 3d numerical modelling study
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2021)A 3D numerical modelling workflow was applied to the Barremian—Aptian source rock interval in a shelfal to lower slope area of the northern Orange Basin, offshore western South Africa. The main objective was to investigate ... -
Hydrogen absorption study of high-energy reactive ball milled Mg composites with palladium additives
(Elsevier, 2013)Hydrogenation behaviour, structure, morphology and dehydrogenation/re-hydrogenation performances of Mg–Pd nanocomposites prepared by high-energy reactive ball milling in H2 (HRBM) of Mg in the presence of amorphous and ... -
Hydrogen storage behavior of magnesium catalyzed by nickel-graphene nanocomposites
(ScienceDirect, 2019)In present study nanocomposites of Graphene Like Material (GLM) and nickel containing 5–60 wt % Ni were prepared by a co-reduction of graphite oxide and Ni2+ ions. These nanocomposites served as effective catalysts of ... -
Hydrogeochemical characteristics and evaluation of groundwater quality for domestic and irrigation purposes: A case study of the Heuningnes Catchment, Western Cape Province, South Africa
(Springer, 2020)Knowing the quality of water is imperative if the water is meant for drinking or agricultural purposes. The spatial and temporal groundwater quality in the Heuningnes Catchment was investigated, and its appropriateness ... -
A hydrogeomorphological approach to quantification of groundwater discharge to streams in South Africa
(Water Research Commission, 2002)In South Africa, the flow requirements for maintaining the normal functioning of aquatic ecosystems is termed the “ecological reserve”, and these should be determined when a licence application for water allocation is ... -
Hydrological modelling and climate adaptation under changing climate: A review with a focus in sub-Saharan Africa
(MDPI, 2022)Empirical evidence continues to show that climate change remains a threat to the stability of the hydrologic system. As the climate system interacts with the hydrologic cycle, one significant repercussion of global warming ... -
Hydromedusae off the Orange River Mouth, Southern Africa
(NISC (Pty) Ltd and Taylor& Francis, 2003)A total of 242 zooplankton samples from the upper 100 m of the water column was collected discontinuously from March 1997 to January 1999 off the Orange River mouth on the west coast of southern Africa. Six species of ... -
Hypertension in African populations: Review and computational insights
