  1. Cross-shelf biogeochemical characteristics of sediments in the central Benguela and their relationship to overlying water column hypoxia

    Cross-shelf biogeochemical characteristics of sediments in the central Benguela and their relationship to overlying water column hypoxia

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Marine Science • Authors: AK van der Plas PMS Monteiro A Pascall
    Data from two cross-shelf sediment sampling cruises were used to explain reasons for the sediment biogeochemical variability in respect of carbon, nitrogen and sulphur, and how the cycling of these elements governs the biogeochemistry of the overlying water through their...
  2. Seasonal and sub-seasonal oxygen and nutrient fluctuations in an embayment of an eastern boundary upwelling system: St Helena Bay

    Seasonal and sub-seasonal oxygen and nutrient fluctuations in an embayment of an eastern boundary upwelling system: St Helena Bay

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Marine Science • Authors: GC Pitcher --- Fisheries Management Branch, Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, South Africa TA Probyn --- Fisheries Management Branch, Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, South Africa
    Seasonal, sub-seasonal and spatial fluctuations in bottom dissolved oxygen (DO) were examined in St Helena Bay, South Africa’s largest and most productive embayment, between November 2013 and November 2014. Alongshore bay characteristics were assessed through comparison of variables along the...
