The Weather of the Agulhas bank and the Cape South Coast by Hunter, I T

“…Secondly the combined 'weather producing' effects of these systems are discussed, with a strong emphasis being placed on man/weather interactions. It is shown that certain operations along the Cape South Coast and over the Agulhas Bank, are extremely weather sensitive, and would benefit considerably from an increased knowledge of weather processes. …”

Ichnology and sedimentology of large tetrapod burrows in the latest Early Triassic Katberg Formation, south-eastern main Karoo Basin, South Africa by Krummeck, William Desmond

“…Detailed analysis is mainly done on observations from the Hobbs Hill site; the results and interpretations are important for and compatible with the entire Katberg Formation. The interactions between the physical (sedimentary) and biological (animal behaviour) processes are important in ichnology and paleoenvironmental reconstruction. …”

Domestic energy use database for integrated energy planning by Afrane-Okese, Yaw

“…The principles of Integrated Energy Planning (IEP) are outline for the household sector and the development of an energy database is identified as one of the important processes required in IEP. The design of the database is practically demonstrated by capturing existing secondary and primary data on energy use in low-income households in South Africa. …”

From statistical mechanics to machine learning: effective models for neural activity by Schonfeldt , Abram

“…In the retina, the activity of ganglion cells, which feed information through the optic nerve to the rest of the brain, is all that our brain will ever know about the visual world. The interactions between many neurons are essential to processing visual information and a growing body of evidence suggests that the activity of populations of retinal ganglion cells cannot be understood from knowledge of the individual cells alone. …”
