The mussels were sampled during the routine ‘‘Mussel Watch Programme’’ (MWP) between 1985 and 2008. Levels of Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Hg, Fe and Mn at Keywords: Cape Point, Hout Bay, Sea Point, Milnerton and Bloubergstrand were analysed for autumn and spring and Metals showed consistent similar mean values for the five sites. There was a highly significant temporal (annual Mussels and seasonal) difference between all metals as well as a significant difference in metal concentrations Mytilus galloprovincialis between the five sites. The concentrations of Zn, Fe, Cd and Pb were higher than previous investigations Long term monitoring and possibly indicative of anthropogenic sources of metals. The results provide a strong motivation to Cape Town South Africa increase efforts in marine pollution research in the area. Ó 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Hierdie stuC.:ie betwis so 'n opvatting en argumenteer dat 'n noodsaaklike tydperk van informele onderhandeling voor formele kontak bestaan het. Gedurende die voorafgaande tydperk, wat bekend staan as vooronderhandeling, het lede van die Nasionale Party regering en die African National Congress (ANC) gepoog om kommunikasiekanale daar te stel en sodoende die moontlikheid van 'n onderhandelde skikking te ondersoek. Deur van 'n fase-benadering tot onderhandeling gebruik te maak, analiseer hierdie studie die oorgangstydperk met die doel om die struktuur en funksies van Suid-Afrikaanse vooronderhandelinge te bepaal. Die volgende drie onderhandelingsfases word onderskei: onderhande/ing oor onderhandeling, voorlopige onderhande/ing, en substantiewe onderhandeling.

  • 7. Water Quality
    Western Cape IWRM Action Plan: Status Quo Report Final Draft 7. WATER QUALITY 7.1 INTRODUCTION 7.1.1 What is water quality? “Water quality” is a term used to express the suitability of water to sustain various uses, such as agricultural, domestic, recreational, and industrial, or aquatic ecosystem processes. A particular use or process will have certain requirements for the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of water; for example limits on the concentrations of toxic substances for drinking water use, or restrictions on temperature and pH ranges for water supporting invertebrate communities. Consequently, water quality can be defined by a range of variables which limit water use by comparing the physical and chemical characteristics of a water sample with water quality guidelines or standards. Although many uses have some common requirements for certain variables, each use will have its own demands and influences on water quality. Water quality is neither a static condition of a system, nor can it be defined by the measurement of only one parameter. Rather, it is variable in both time and space and requires routine monitoring to detect spatial patterns and changes over time. The composition of surface and groundwater is dependent on natural factors (geological, topographical, meteorological, hydrological, and biological) in the drainage basin and varies with seasonal differences in runoff volumes, weather conditions, and water levels. Large natural variations in water quality may, therefore, be observed even where only a single water resource is involved. Human intervention also has significant effects on water quality. Some of these effects are the result of hydrological changes, such as the building of dams, draining of wetlands, and diversion of flow.

  • What Lies Beneath Table Mountain Or All Models Are Wrong, but Some Are Useful
    WHAT LIES BENEATH TABLE MOUNTAIN OR ALL MODELS ARE WRONG, BUT SOME ARE USEFUL Prof Alexander Kisters August 2016 WHAT LIES BENEATH TABLE MOUNTAIN OR ALL MODELS ARE WRONG, BUT SOME ARE USEFUL Inaugural lecture delivered on 2 August 2016 Prof Alexander Kisters Department of Earth Sciences Faculty of Science Stellenbosch University Editor: SU Language Centre Printing: SUN MeDIA ISBN: 978-0-7972-1614-3 Copyright © 2016 Alexander Kisters BIOGRAPHY rofessor Alexander (Alex) Kisters completed his Pgeology undergraduate studies and MSc at the Aachen University of Technology (RWTH) in Germany and obtained a PhD in geology from the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. Subsequently, he had worked in the mineral exploration industry in South Africa and had held various postdoctoral and lecturer positions at the universities of Aachen, Cologne and the Witwatersrand before joining Stellenbosch University in 1999. Currently, he is appointed at the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Stellenbosch, as a professor in structural geology and tectonics where he teaches under- and postgraduate courses. He has supervised and cosupervised over 50 honours students, 15 MSc studies and 7 PhD studies. Alex has held a National Research Foundation rating for the past 15 years and a B-rating for the last five years. His research focuses on a range of topics related to crustal deformation aimed at integrating field data with regional tectonic models and more generic processes of melt transport and hydrothermal fluid flow in the Earth’s crust. 1 ABSTRACT he geological evolution of the Western Cape remains elusive after over 100 years of research. Based on regional Tfieldwork and correlations, this contribution aims to develop a tectonic model for the deposition and deformation of rocks of the Malmesbury Group, the rocks that underlie much of the Western Cape.
