The effects of a single freshwater release into the Kromme Estuary. 3: Estuarine zooplankton response
Natural patterns of zooplankton variability (temporal and spatial) in the Kromme Estuary have broken down due to persistent euhalinity (salinity values above 28‰) throughout the estuary. These conditions occur as a consequence of freshwater retention by a large reservoir. Only 2 x 10 m (<2% of the mean annual runoff (MAR) from the catchment) is allocated to the estuary per annum, and the presen...
متن کاملThe effects of a single freshwater release into the Kromme Estuary. 4: Larval fish response
In total 17 families comprising more than 29 species of larval teleost fishes were recorded in the Kromme Estuary during the study period. Dominant species included Atherina breviceps, Caffrogobius gilchristi, Diplodus sargus capensis, Gilchristella aestuaria, Glossogobius callidus, Rhabdosargus holubi and Rhabdosargus globiceps. The larval fish catch in the estuary indicated a marine dominance...
متن کاملThe effects of a single freshwater release into the Kromme Estuary. 2: Microalgal response
The release of freshwater from the Mpofu Dam in November 1998 resulted in a short-term (6 d) longitudinal and vertical gradient of both salinity and nitrate in the estuary. There was no significant increase in phytoplankton chlorophyll a during the period of the study. The phytoplankton communities were dominated (> 10%) by diatoms and flagellates throughout the study. The average number of dia...
متن کاملImproving Reachability and Navigability in Recommender Systems
In this paper, we investigate recommender systems from a network perspective and investigate recommendation networks, where nodes are items (e.g., movies) and edges are constructed from top-N recommendations (e.g., related movies). In particular, we focus on evaluating the reachability and navigability of recommendation networks and investigate the following questions: (i) How well do recommend...
متن کاملWater Quality within the York River Estuary
Key water quality management issues and threats within the Chesapeake Bay and its tidal tributaries include excess loadings of sediment and nutrients, and the introduction of toxic chemicals and microbial agents. Poor water clarity, principally controlled by suspended sediments and phytoplankton, is a persistent and widespread problem in the York River estuary with the oligohaline and middle me...
