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 ...
A taxonomic revision of chamaecrista (caesalpinioideae, cassieae, cassiinae) in Southern Africa
(American Society of Plant Taxonomists, 2022)
The southern African species of Chamaecrista were all treated under Cassia in Gordon-Gray’s treatment for the Flora of Southern
Africa. However, given the subsequent generic recircumscriptions in the subtribe Cassiinae, ...
Dispersal and coastal geomorphology limit potential for mangrove range expansion under climate change
(Wiley, 2022)
Latitudinal range limits for mangroves on high-energy,
wave-dominated
coasts
are controlled by geomorphological features and estuarine dynamics. Mangroves
reach a southern global range limit along the South African ...
Stakeholder-derived recommendations and actions to support deep-reef conservation in the Western Indian Ocean
(Wiley, 2022)
Deep reefs below 30mprovide essential ecosystem services for ocean health and
human well-being such as food security and climate change resilience. Yet, deep
reefs remain poorly researched and largely unprotected, including ...
