Exploring the evolution and hidden large-scale structures of galaxies with MeerKAT HI surveys by Rajohnson, Sambatriniaina Hagiriche Aycha

“…By only considering the complete sample from Vela–SMGPS and Vela–H I, I calculated the H I mass function (HIMF) of the two surveys in an attempt to quantify these VSCL overdensities. The overall pattern of the HIMF closely aligns with the ALFALFA HIMF. …”

The Development of Inner-City Inclusionary Housing: The Case of Cape Town by Knight, Jason

“…The data analysis was undertaken using pattern matching and descriptive statistics. The research findings put forward specific state interventions such as inclusionary zones, pro-active up-zoning, area medium income, in-lieu fees, density bonuses, fast tracking planning applications, access to subsidies, making well-located public land available, and access to infrastructure. …”

Princess Vlei : what diatoms can tell us about spatial and temporal heterogeneity in an urban wetland by Cowan, Oliver

“…In addition, the project attempts to establish whether there are spatial patterns in diatom flora within a small lake. Diatoms from three depths from each of the four sites were identified, counted and analyzed according to their trophic preferences and pollution tolerances which were acquired from a variety of resources. …”

Revisiting Aloe dichotoma’s suitability as an indictor of climate change in southern Africa by Jack, Samuel Linton

“…Conversely, average rainfall within the poleward winter rainfall zone (WRZ), and south-western extreme of the SRZ, was shown to have been historically higher and more consistent than the SRZ to the north. …”

A biogeographic analysis of the seaweed flora of the west coast of southern Africa, from Lüderitz to Cape Agulhas by Anderson, Pippin

“…Species distribution patterns in both shore and shore pool zones were found to follow the same pattern, except for a drop in species in the subtidal fringe pools, which this study concluded was a meaningless concept. …”
