  • Identifier: http://hdl.handle.net/10962/110291 , vital:33261
  • Description: Transcript: "Acacia caffra. Flowers November to January with occasional extensions to March. The scent differs from Accia karroo in being not so sickly -is sharper to the nose but nonetheless attractive. The fine thorns are not readily visible. The softness of the foliage can lead one into grabbing at branches only to be be well pricked. The tree is very common along the Buffalo river at King William's Town often growing at the water's edge. In the veld, Acacia karroo often grows among Acacia caffra, the two making an interesting contrast. 30.10.1959. Coming into flower at Kei Bridge on the Komga-Transkei border, At Bashee Bridge between Idutywa and Umtata, and in the Umzimkhulu valley on the Natal border of Transkei. 21.11.1959. Coming into good flower at King William's Town. July 1960. Trees mostly bare but some have straggly leaves adhering. August 1960. Bare. September 1960. Began shooting on trees along rivers early in the month. But leaves began bursting from their buds on trees in dry veld on about the 15th of the month despite lack of rain to stimulate spring growth October 27th 1960. First flowers appearing.”

An investigation of the profiles of bursts of solar radio noise

- Wild, Peter Anthony Thornton

  • Authors: Wild, Peter Anthony Thornton
  • Date: 1960
  • Subjects: Solar radio emission , Radio noise , Solar noise storms , Radio astronomy
  • Language: English
  • Type: Thesis , Masters , MSc
  • Identifier: vital:5551 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1013504
  • Description: [Summary] Chapter I . The general characteristics of solar radiation at metre wavelengths are described, with reference to data published in the literature. A brief description of some aspects of solar physics relevant to the study of solar noise is given, and the literature relating to the correlation of radio effects with solar disturbances is reviewed. Chapter II. A concise description of the apparatus constructed for the continuous recording of the flux density of solar radio noise at a frequency of 300 Mc/s is given, with some mention of difficulties experienced, and how these were overcome. Full circuit diagrams of electronic apparatus, and illustrative photographs, are supplied. Chapter III. The development of theories of the origin and propagation of solar noise radiation is historically reviewed and the success of each theory in explaining or predicting observed phenomena, is assessed. A working model is chosen from among these theories, and reasons for its adoption are given. Chapter IV. Observations made by the author of solar radiation at a frequency of 300 Mc/s are described, together with a description of the objects and methods, of analysis of the records. Chapter V. Phenomena observed by the author are compared with those observed by other workers. It is concluded that storm bursts are caused by transients similar to those producing Type II and Type ITI bursts, and a model for the production of storm bursts is tentatively suggested. Chapter VI. Suggestions for further research, including suggestions for methods of testing the author's conclusions, are made.

Fishes of the family Gobiidae in South Africa

- Smith, J.L.B. (James Leonard Brierley), 1897-1968

  • Authors: Smith, J.L.B. (James Leonard Brierley), 1897-1968
  • Date: 1960

  • Description: Gobioid fishes are not popular with most ichthyologists, which is understandable, for most species are small to minute, and of neither commercial nor angling significance. Although almost all live in shallow water, many Gobies are so expert at concealment, that only the most thorough collecting brings them to light. Thirty years ago only 16 species were known in purely South African waters, where as in the present review, no less than 46 species are described from the South African zone, which is here taken as the area between Walfish Bay and Delagoa Bay. Critical revision of the South African species is long overdue, as the results of this review clearly reveal. Not only have there been malidentifications but also much confusion, e.g. it has been found that in nudicepts C & V, 1837, no less than four species have been confused. In addition, there have been constant new discoveries. , Rhodes University Libraries (Digitisation)

Insecticide resistance in the blue tick, Boophilus Decoloratus Koch, in South Africa

- Whitehead, G B

  • Authors: Whitehead, G B

  • Type: Thesis , Doctoral , PhD
  • Identifier: vital:5897 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1013426
  • Description: The work described in this dissertation was undertaken in an attempt to obtain a better understanding of the causes and relationships of insecticide resistance in Blue Tick, Boophilus decoloratus Koch, which has become an acute problem in some localities of the country. The work was undertaken at the Research Department of African Explosives and Chemical Industries Limited over a period of six years from 1953 to 1958. An attempt has been made to keep up to date with the published literature on the various aspects of these investigations up until the end of 1958. Information gained from the literature subsequent to end of 1958 has been made use of but it has not been possible for a number of reasons to follow all recent developments in the various aspects of insecticide resistance published during 1959. In the execution of this work assistance has been obtained from colleagues better equipped in the field of organic chemistry, biochemistry and statistics, than the author. Where information so gained has been used it has been duly acknowledged. Considerable assistance was rendered by laboratory assistants who were responsible for performing the considerable amount of routine collection, breeding and testing of the biological material. The blue tick is not a convenient experimental organism for studies on insecticide resistance. Even with the best facilities the tick cannot be bred satisfactorily and in consequence all supplies had to be collected from naturally-occurring populations. Although this had decided advantages in some aspects of the work, a great deal of useful information might have been obtained if certain strains of ticks could have been maintained. The lack of a standard sensitive reference strain has been a considerable disadvantage which could not be overcome and which has influenced the manner in which this work has been carried out. Because the tick could not be bred artificially the work could only be undertaken with unfed larvae and fully engorged adult females . Larvae are extremely small and in consequence could only be handled in batches while the fully engorged female is sluggish and contains a large quantity of semi-digested mammalian blood which invariably interfered with chemical or biochemical studies.
