(Taylor and Francis, 2021)The Lower Jurassic Clarens Formation (Stormberg Group, Karoo Supergroup, Main Karoo basin) contains relatively common vertebrate trackways impressed into apparently soft to firm, fine sediment beds preserved within the ...
-
(2022)Geotextile filters are frequently used in filtration and drainage applications for road pavement and structural drainage. These filters are prone to clogging by clay and silt particles. A study to evaluate the effectiveness ...
-
(Elsevier, 2022-08)The Campano-Maastrichtian deposits of the Nkporo and Mamu formations of the Anambra Basin represent prospective hydrocarbon resources in southern Nigeria. In order to reveal the paleoclimate, sediment recycling and ...
-
(Academy of Science of South Africa, 2022-07)Nitrogen (N) isotopes of aquatic organisms offer a way of differentiating sources of dissolved nitrate species in water. Water quality in the Hartbeespoort Reservoir has been a problem for many decades, causing excessive ...
-
(Elsevier, 2021-12-04)Please read abstract in the article.
-
(Elsevier, 2022-08)The recent COVID-19 disease has highlighted the need for further research around the risk to human health and the environment because of mass burial of COVID-19 victims. Despite SARS-CoV-2 being an enveloped virus, which ...
-
(Springer, 2022-01)Permeable interlocking concrete pavements (PICP) are being used increasingly in stormwater management. A 2-year experimental study was conducted to quantify some uncertain parameters related to PICP. The study entailed the ...
-
(Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, 2021-03)Investing in a mining venture can be risky and stakeholders need transparent, unbiased reports to understand the Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves a mining company holds. Readability and textual choice can be used ...
-
(Springer, 2021-03)Deltas generally exhibit morphological and architectural variations due to repercussions of fluvial, wave and tidal currents. The Neoproterozoic Chhaosa Formation, Simla Group, Lesser Himalaya, a shallow-marine, mixed-energy ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2022-03-08)The Karoo Large Igneous Province (KLIP) in South Africa comprises a spatially limited basalt suite (Drakensberg Group) and a spatially extensive dolerite suite. This study aims to establish a tectonic regime that could ...
-
(Springer, 2022-04)Please read the abstract in the article.
-
(Geological Society of South Africa, 2020-12)Multispectral sensors, along with common and advanced algorithms, have become efficient tools for routine lithological discrimination and mineral potential mapping. It is with this paradigm in mind that this paper sought ...
-
(Geological Society of South Africa, 2020-12)The Palaeoproterozoic Hekpoort Formation of the Pretoria Group is a lava-dominated unit that has a basin-wide extent throughout the Transvaal sub-basin of South Africa. Additional correlative units may be present in the ...
-
(Elsevier, 2020-11)With an increasing population, development of the country and a changing climate, demand for fresh water has increased and is coupled with negatively impacted water resources. One impacted component of the water resource ...
-
(Elsevier, 2020-12)Water quality globally suffers from overuse and pollution, but desert areas with high evaporation rates and groundwater as the only water source have additional challenges. Namakwaland in the Northern Cape is an arid region ...
-
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-09)Please read abstract in the article.
-
(MDPI, 2020-11-25)The Vredefort impact structure in South Africa is deeply eroded to its lowermost levels. However, granophyre (impact melt) dykes in such structures preserve clasts of supracrustal rocks, transported down from the uppermost ...
-
(Wiley, 2021-01)Understanding the character of hail is an important part of mitigating its impact on life and property. Climatologies of hail over South Africa are rare and based on observed data with a coarse spatial and temporal resolution. ...
-
(Springer, 2021-01)The so-called mud cracks, possibly the most common deformation feature in sediment, are evident in almost all dried-up exposed sediment surfaces. Several experimental attempts have so far been made to explain the evolution ...
-
(University of Pretoria, 2021)The sedimentary rocks of the Karoo Supergroup cover approximately 75% of the surface area of South Africa. Major projects have been constructed on and in these rocks with a number of tunnelling projects such as the Lesotho ...
