  1. MODELS OF ECOSYSTEMS AND AQUATIC ENVIRONMENTS: DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION

    MODELS OF ECOSYSTEMS AND AQUATIC ENVIRONMENTS: DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Journal of the Limnological Society of Southern Africa • Authors: B.R. Allanson --- , South Africa
    An historical treatment of a number of principal events is given. This leads to an assessment of the current research approach in hydrobiology and its success in the development of process orientated ecosystem component models. With the contemporaneous development of...
  2. FUTURE CHALLENGES IN WATER QUALITY MODELLING WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO OPERATIONALLY CLOSED CATCHMENTS

    FUTURE CHALLENGES IN WATER QUALITY MODELLING WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO OPERATIONALLY CLOSED CATCHMENTS

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Journal of the Limnological Society of Southern Africa • Authors: S.F. Forster --- Department of Water Affairs, South Africa F.A. Stoffberg --- Department of Water Affairs, South Africa J.A. van Rooyen --- Department of Water Affairs, South Africa
    As a result of the declining quality of many water sources, the use of water quality models in planning is increasing. To date applications have involved the simulation of total dissolved salts and nutrients, largely in catchments affected by urban...

  5. Dynamics of water exchange and salt flux in the Macuse Estuary, central Mozambique, southern Africa

    Dynamics of water exchange and salt flux in the Macuse Estuary, central Mozambique, southern Africa

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Marine Science • Authors: LLAJ Miguel --- Post-Graduate Program in Geology (PPGl), Brazil JWA Castro --- Post-Graduate Program in Geology (PPGl), Brazil SFA Machava --- Department of Oceanography, Mozambique
    Studies of water-particle flow dynamics in shallow estuarine systems show that tidal currents control water exchange, salt flux and residence time. We used the 3D Estuary, Lake and Coastal Ocean Model (ELCOM) to estimate the dynamics of tidal currents, salt...
  6. Three-dimensional modelling of the circulation in False Bay, South Africa

    Three-dimensional modelling of the circulation in False Bay, South Africa

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Marine Science • Authors: F Coleman --- , South Africa GPJ Diedericks --- , South Africa AK Theron --- , South Africa J Lencart e Silva --- , United Kingdom
    False Bay is the largest coastal embayment along South Africa’s coastline. Despite notable contributions of various historical observational studies on the circulation within False Bay and the associated physical processes driving these flows, there remains significant uncertainty largely because the...
