Climate change in coastal waters: Time series properties affecting trend estimation
(AMS, 2016)
In South Africa, 129 in situ temperature time series of up to 43 years are used for investigations of the
thermal characteristics of coastal seawater. They are collected with handheld thermometers or underwater
temperature ...
Metabarcoding of zooplankton to derive indicators of pelagic ecosystem status
(Academy of Science of South Africa, 2022)
Zooplankton play a key role in marine food webs and carbon cycling and are useful indicators of climate-related changes and ocean health in pelagic ecosystems. Zooplankton are traditionally identified to species through ...
Environmental response and ph tolerance of induced co2 in ulva rigida c.agardh, 1823(Chlorophyta) under controlled conditions
(PAS FORUM, 2022)
The increase in integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA), where seaweed (particularly Ulva rigidaC.Agardh, 1823) is
used as a feedstock and a wastewater scrubber in South African IMTA systems, has necessitated research ...
Renosterveld conservation in South Africa: A case study for handling uncertainty in knowledge-based neural networks for environmental management
(International Society for Environmental Information Sciences, 2009)
This work presents an artificial intelligence method for the development of decision support systems for environmental
management and demonstrates its strengths using an example from the domain of biodiversity and ...
Understanding the creek dynamics and environmental characteristics that determine the distribution of mangrove and salt marsh communities at Nahoon Estuary
(Elsevier, 2016)
The southern distributional limit for mangroves on the east coast of Africa is thought to be at the planted
mangrove forest at Nahoon Estuary (33° S) in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. This study investigated the influence
of ...
