Working towards an increase in manganese ferroalloy production in South Africa - a research agenda
(Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, 2018)Although South Africa is endowed with one of the largest land-based deposits of manganese ore, in the order of 80% of the ore mined is exported for beneficiation elsewhere. The past 15 years has seen a decline in the ... -
Temperature and monsoon tango in a tropical stalagmite : last glacial- Interglacial climate dynamics
(Nature Research, 2018)High-resolution paleoclimate data on stable isotopes in a stalagmite were coupled to glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs). The Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) transitioned from limited rainfall during the Last Glacial ... -
Pressure–temperature history of the >3 Ga Tartoq Greenstone belt in Southwest Greenland and its implications for Archaean tectonics
(MDPI, 2018)The Tartoq greenstone belt of southwest Greenland represents a well-preserved section through >3 Ga old oceanic crust and has the potential to provide important constraints on the composition and geodynamics of the Archaean ... -
Estimation of groundwater recharge via percolation outputs from a rainfall / runoff model for the Verlorenvlei estuarine system, West coast, South Africa
(Elsevier, 2018)Wetlands are conservation priorities worldwide, due to their high biodiversity and productivity, but are under threat from agricultural and climate change stresses. To improve the water management practices and resource ...
