Includes abstract. Long-term ecosystem changes, such as regime shifts, have occurred in several marine ecosystems worldwide. Multivariate statistical methods have been used to detect such changes, but they have to date not been applied to the southern Benguela ecosystem. A weakness of many of the methods is that they require long time series data and do not provide robust results at the end of time series. A new method known as the sequential t-test algorithm for analysing regime shifts (STARS) is applied to a set of biological state variables and environmental and anthropogenic forcing variables in the southern Benguela. 2014-08-13T19:49:11Z 2014-08-13T19:49:11Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6481 eng application/pdf Department of Oceanography Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
