The current investigation represents the first attempt to assess the validity of the River Continuum Concept (RCC) in a southern African temperate river. The phytoplankton and phytobenthos communities, and chl-a concentration followed a trend similar to that proposed for the river continuum concept (RCC). The middle reaches based on the phytobenthos or phytoplankton communities and chl-a concentrations which were employed as proxies for primary production, were the most productive, while the upper reaches were the least primary productive. The evaluation of organic matter contributions to the SPM and detritus along the river–estuary continuum provided a baseline assessment of the nature and sources of potential food for consumers inhabiting different locations during different times of the year. Incorporating such spatio-temporal variations in SPM and detritus into food web studies will improve our understanding of the flow of carbon through aquatic systems.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 15:56:40 SAST ]]> Towards a Mobile Bioethanol Unit for point of source conversion of sugar sources to bioethanol: design and feasibility study for South Africa https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:27439 Thu 13 May 2021 06:06:15 SAST ]]> Thermal physiology and behavioural ecology of the white shark, carcharodon carcharias https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:28522 Thu 13 May 2021 05:29:11 SAST ]]> Environmental conflict resolution: a critical analysis of the role of interests and value https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:26740 Thu 13 May 2021 04:01:16 SAST ]]> Contributions to the study of a class of optimal control problems on the orthogonal groups SO(3) and SO(4) https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:28608 Thu 13 May 2021 03:49:57 SAST ]]> Characterization of the co-chaperones of Hsp70 and Hsp90 in Trypanosoma brucei and their potential partnerships https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:26583 Thu 13 May 2021 03:30:11 SAST ]]> Bacterial degradation of fossil fuel waste in aqueous and solid media https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:26588 Thu 13 May 2021 03:30:04 SAST ]]> Invariant control systems and sub-Riemannian structures on lie groups: equivalence and isometries https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:28607 Thu 13 May 2021 01:16:43 SAST ]]> The isolation, characterisation and chemotaxonomic significance of secondary metabolites from selected South African Laurencia spp. Rhodophyta https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:28593 Thu 13 May 2021 00:58:01 SAST ]]> A constructivist deconstruction of post-apartheid South Africa’s trade negotiation strategies: the politics of development and global value chains https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:28596 Thu 01 Feb 2024 09:56:38 SAST ]]>
