- Description: 2 Chohodwani drums, hanging on poles (beaters) pegged, closed. 1 Shikulu drum. Big drum on ground, hand beaten, wine barrel. 2 Kirisu drums on ground (beaters) pegged open. 1 Tsakara corrugated iron strip on supports, 6 ft. long. 1 Punzu sable antelope horn. The 2 Kisusu drums were played by one man who beat an irregular rhythm against the three other drum's regular rhythm. The clappers were carefully made of sawn planks, blacked along the edges. The main dance of the GiTonga appears to be a kind of violent dance du ventre in which the hips and belly are rolled and shaken. The women and men coming out in pairs to dance in the centre of the ring. In both Zore II and III the order of appearance of the instrument is:- First Kirisu drums, then the 2 Chohodwani drums, then the Shikulu and then the corrugated iron Tsakara. The GiTonga dances are among the most deafening in Africa. The volume of sound within the circle of spectators, drummers and dancers must approach. If not exceed, the threshold of pain in the ears. Dance with 5 drums (1 struck by hand, 4 with beaters), rattles, wooden clappers, and corrugated iron strip.

- Description: the ecological significance of ocean plankton in terms of nutrient cycling and energy transfer is widely recognised, as is their mechanistic link with both oceanographic processes and climate. Consequently, plankton are widely regarded as sentinels of climate change, principally owing to their responsiveness to changing environmental conditions. Developing an understanding of the ecological as well as socio-economic consequences associated with changes in marine plankton dynamics has emerged as a key issue worldwide. Though many exciting advances in this respect have been attained with the aid of long-term plankton time series (>50 y), global environmental datasets and innovative meta-analyses, building deep knowledge of regional bio-physical dynamics and responses to specific perturbed states remains an essential component of the collective effort. Algoa Bay, situated on the warmtemperate south-east coast of South Africa presents a unique opportunity to study key elements of plankton ecology relevant to climate change problems in the regional sense. The embayment is locally subjected to frequent wind-driven upwelling and regionally, to periodic mesoscale oceanographic forcing (e.g., large solitary meanders, Agulhas Current intrusions), all of which culminate in a complex physical and biogeochemical environment. Using zooplankton as the focal component and drawing from a multi-year monthly dataset incorporating a bay-scale sampling framework, the present study addressed three key hypotheses pertaining to 1) drivers of spatio-temporal variability, 2) biomass rate of change over temporal scales using time-series analyses, and 3) community responses to a bay-scale biological perturbation event. Zooplankton biomass exhibited prominent seasonal patterns with bimodal peaks corresponding with near-consistent year-to-year autumn and spring blooms. Overall, the spatial trend showed no heterogeneity, though statistical significance between-station variability was noted per season. An analytical framework involving generalised additive models revealed zooplankton spatial heterogeneity in Algoa Bay to be a function of seasonal variation in a suite of physicochemical variables, including the combined effects of temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, total nitrogen and silicate, but not ammonium, phosphate or chlorophyll-a (as proxy for phytoplankton). Fronts (including river plumes), warm water intrusion from the Agulhas Current, and wind-driven upwelling were postulated to be key driving forces. Structural breaks analysis performed on station-specific time series revealed significant incremental increases in zooplankton biomass over time, which in turn, corresponded with a gradual decrease in thermocline depth. The most pronounced increasing effect was associated with a period (2013– 14) of amplified land-derived nutrient input and increasing harmful algal bloom (HAB) activity. , Thesis (PhD) -- Faculty of Science, School of Environmental Sciences, 2022

- Description: This study examines the changing roles of graphics journalists in the digital era at Graphics24, the largest information graphics newsroom in South Africa, in the context of their work for Netwerk24, an online news site published in Afrikaans with a strong focus on mobile-first news. The study examines the discursive construction of these new journalistic roles in the digital era where even the core conceptualisation of what journalism is, is being re-examined. It considers external factors affecting the discourse of change, drawing on a hierarchy of influences analytical model, as well as norms specific to the creation of information graphics. Data for this study was gathered by using ethnographic immersion and semi-structured interviews. This study specifically looks at graphics journalists working in a mobile-first environment, and how the pressures of producing information graphics for consumption on smartphones affects their roles. Evidence of two widely differing discourses in the Graphics24 and Netwerk24 newsrooms was found. Visual journalists in this study have created a discourse around being distinct “service providers”, rather than mobile-first journalists, who do not see the need for full integration in the fast-paced mobile news environment of Netwerk24. Word-centric journalists have, by contrast, created a mobile-first discourse. They experience the separateness of the graphics team as a barrier that impedes the creation of good information graphics for mobile phone consumption. Although this is a very localised study in a very particular context, this study contributes to broader thinking in what is a very under-researched field: The changing roles of visual journalists in the digital era and the discursive construction of these roles. The study suggests that even in the digital era where the definition of newsrooms has become much more fluid and less fixed physically, ethnographic methods can still offer a meaningful way to explore journalistic roles.

Zoning the Southwestern Indian Ocean to mitigate impacts from ocean-based hydrocarbon exploration and production on sea turtles

- Description: The conflict between sea turtles and the numerous socio-economic developments in the Southwestern Indian Ocean (SWIO) are set to intensify as countries are looking to develop their ocean-based economies. The Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production (HEP) industry is of particular importance, since many of the SWIO governments view it as catalyst for development. This has raised concerns about potentially significant environmental impacts from the HEP industry, to sea turtles and their habitats, based on international examples where sea turtles have been severely negatively impacted upon, like the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Given that the four sea turtles species in the SWIO are listed on the IUCN Red List of threatened species, the aim of this study was to derive priority areas for sea turtles in the face of HEP, that could be used in an ocean zoning strategy for sustainable economic development of HEP in the SWIO region. To achieve this, the study spatially represented the main life-history stages of sea turtles, i.e. the breeding, migrating and foraging areas of Caretta caretta (loggerhead turtles), Dermochelys coriacea (leatherback turtles), Chelonia mydas (green turtles) and Eretmochelys imbricata (hawksbill turtles), within a telemetry derived distribution for each species. This spatial representation was used to quantify the extent of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) conserving sea turtles in the SWIO, which revealed that sea turtle breeding areas were well represented in MPAs, including C. caretta (~40 %), C. mydas (~53 %), E. imbricata (~59 %) and D. coriacea (~22 %), the latter being least protected by MPAs during breeding, possibly due to a far greater extent of their internesting areas than the other three species. MPA coverage of breeding areas could be positively correlated to the increasing population trends of C. caretta and C. mydas in the SWIO, and therefore the assumption was made that increasing population trends of sea turtles are in part related to MPA protection of their breeding areas. In addition, the potential impacts on sea turtles from existing and proposed HEP developments were assessed and mapped by using a novel, species-specific rating index. The results revealed the extensive nature of potential water pollution impacts on sea turtles, constituting 16 of the top 28 most significant impacts from HEP on sea turtles. Other significant impacts on sea turtles associated with the HEP industry, included habitat destruction, light pollution and noise pollution. Importantly, this study found that ~70 % of all potential HEP impacts (irrespective of significance) on adult nesting sea turtles could be avoided if seasonal sea turtle movement during critical life stages are included as species-specific HEP mitigation measures. The data and maps on the main life-history stages of sea turtles, and the potential cumulative impacts from the HEP industry, were used in a Systematic Conservation Planning process, to derive a concept ocean zoning. As final outcome of this study, the concept ocean zoning highlighted areas where increased protection to sea turtles, and management of the conflict between sea turtles and the HEP industry, will be required if the HEP industry is to develop in a sustainable manner in the SWIO.

- Description: The conflict between sea turtles and the numerous socio-economic developments in the Southwestern Indian Ocean (SWIO) are set to intensify as countries are looking to develop their ocean-based economies. The Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production (HEP) industry is of particular importance, since many of the SWIO governments view it as catalyst for development. This has raised concerns about potentially significant environmental impacts from the HEP industry, to sea turtles and their habitats, based on international examples where sea turtles have been severely negatively impacted upon, like the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Given that the four sea turtles species in the SWIO are listed on the IUCN Red List of threatened species, the aim of this study was to derive priority areas for sea turtles in the face of HEP, that could be used in an ocean zoning strategy for sustainable economic development of HEP in the SWIO region. To achieve this, the study spatially represented the main life-history stages of sea turtles, i.e. the breeding, migrating and foraging areas of Caretta caretta (loggerhead turtles), Dermochelys coriacea (leatherback turtles), Chelonia mydas (green turtles) and Eretmochelys imbricata (hawksbill turtles), within a telemetry derived distribution for each species. This spatial representation was used to quantify the extent of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) conserving sea turtles in the SWIO, which revealed that sea turtle breeding areas were well represented in MPAs, including C. caretta (~40 %), C. mydas (~53 %), E. imbricata (~59 %) and D. coriacea (~22 %), the latter being least protected by MPAs during breeding, possibly due to a far greater extent of their internesting areas than the other three species. MPA coverage of breeding areas could be positively correlated to the increasing population trends of C. caretta and C. mydas in the SWIO, and therefore the assumption was made that increasing population trends of sea turtles are in part related to MPA protection of their breeding areas. In addition, the potential impacts on sea turtles from existing and proposed HEP developments were assessed and mapped by using a novel, species-specific rating index. The results revealed the extensive nature of potential water pollution impacts on sea turtles, constituting 16 of the top 28 most significant impacts from HEP on sea turtles. Other significant impacts on sea turtles associated with the HEP industry, included habitat destruction, light pollution and noise pollution. Importantly, this study found that ~70 % of all potential HEP impacts (irrespective of significance) on adult nesting sea turtles could be avoided if seasonal sea turtle movement during critical life stages are included as species-specific HEP mitigation measures. The data and maps on the main life-history stages of sea turtles, and the potential cumulative impacts from the HEP industry, were used in a Systematic Conservation Planning process, to derive a concept ocean zoning. As final outcome of this study, the concept ocean zoning highlighted areas where increased protection to sea turtles, and management of the conflict between sea turtles and the HEP industry, will be required if the HEP industry is to develop in a sustainable manner in the SWIO.

- Description: "Just like that is what I do not like. When you cook you do not sit down properly but only squat. The white people here are from England. See-you are listening to me like a snake, my brothers, Why are you so black like a crow. Why are you so red like a "Jekwaya"? Look Franzi has had a child, the child Mujarai. I am Franzi-son of Maunze Mwiambo. I am from Chipumgumbira (Sipungabera. lit. the small forest of rock rabbits) Portuguese territory. We are happy at Kabira, here working together with the Italians. Sorry for you, friends who stay at home. Don't take "Joni" (a labour recruiting organisation) in order to come here. (i.e. come on your own). The tune is a variation of a well-known traditional tune in S. Rhodesia. Self-delectative song with Mbira dza waNdau.
