Primary production of Swartvlei in mid-summer 1980, with emphasis on the production ecology of the littoral zone

  • Description: From Introduction: Energy passes through an ecosystem via a multiplicity of interconnected routes, which can be broadly categorised into trophic and detrital pathways. The "metabolic activity" of most lakes will be governed predcminantly at the base of these two routes; namely, the primary producer and decanposer levels, respectively (Wetzel and Allen, 1972). The importance of the littoral primary producers (especially the aquatic macrophytes) in the functioning of the Swartvlei ecosystem has been emphasised in a comprehensive report by Howard-Williams and Allanson (1978) dealing with the lake system fran 1975 to 1978. They noted that although the littoral shelf (<2m below low water level) occupies only 43% of the lake's surface area it contributed 64% of the total annual primary production during the period investigated. This was largely due to the dense Potamogeton pectinatus stands which alone accounted for 52% of the total carbon input into the lake by plants. The fact that the production/biomass ratio for P. pectinatus was only 1,2:1 suggested that its importance as a primary producer in Swartvlei was largely due to its high bianass. (Biomass, or standing stock, is used in this report as defined by Waters (1977); namely, "the amount present at a point in time, expressed best as quantity per spatial unit".)

Review of carbonate hosted lead-zinc (copper) deposits and the geological factors affecting their shape, size and grade

  • Description: From Introduction: For at least two centuries and a corresponding number of generations of geologists and miners there has been active argument concerning the origin of certain types of carbonate hosted mineral deposit. The characterization of the type itself was and still is debatable. Objections have been raised to grouping several examples under one heading because each has its individually distinctive features. ·This is especially applicable to the carbonate hosted lead-zinc "sedimentary" deposits. The type that will be discussed in the text to follow is composed chiefly of galena, sphalerite, barite and fluorite, with pyrite , marcasite and chalcopyrite as conspicuous accessory ore minerals. Exceptions to this general copper deficient characteristic displayed by the sedimentary carbonate-hosted lead-zinc deposits are the deposits at Tsumeb and Kombat, Namibia. These deposits are hosted by the carbonate sequence of the Otavi Shelf sediments, and copper, in the form of tennantite, chalcopyrite and bornite, is the major ore constituent. Calcite, aragonite, dolomite and quartz are the commonest nonmetallic gangue minerals but siderite and silica may also be present. In contrast with other lead and zinc sulphide (volcanogenic) deposits, those to be considered here seldom carry noteworthy amounts of silver or any other precious metals. Commonly the country rock is a carbonate; limestone or dolomite, but deposits in. sandstone, shale and conglomerate are not unknown. Characteristic features are ore bodies that extend parallel or nearly so with the bedding although many such deposits are partly, or completely developed along crosscutting fissures and breccias. Some observers regard these fissure fillings as evidence for a magmatic source of the metals, whereas others regard them as an indication of remobilization of ions, metals or minerals orginally present in low-grade stratiform deposits elsewhere in the stratigraphic succession.

  • Description: Dawson, C.E. 1981. Review of the Indo-Pacific Pipefish Genus Doryrhamphus Kaup (Pisces: Syngnathidae), with Descriptions of a New Species and a New Subspecies. Ichthyological Bulletin of the J.L.B. Smith Institute of Ichthyology, No. 44, 27 pages, 17 figures. Doryrhamphus, a genus of trunk-pouch pipefishes commonly associated with rock or coral habitats, is diagnosed and a key is provided to the five species and five subspecies recognized. The genus Dentirostrum Herald and Randall is synonymized with Doryrhamphus, treated species and subspecies are diagnosed and illustrated, distribution (based on material examined) is delineated and comprehensive synonymies are provided. The genus includes two species groups which, (in subadults and adults) differ in having either one or two spines on principal ridges of the posterior predorsal rings. Species of the single-spine group are distinguished by differences in meristic values and preserved coloration, as well as by the presence of one or two ventrolateral projections on the snout of males, or the absence thereof. Species of the two-spine group are distinguished by differences in meristic values and preserved coloration, as well as by the presence of either one or two spines on principal ridges of tail rings. The single-spine group includes the type-species, D. excisus (three subspecies), with one ventrolateral projection on snout in males, A japonicus with no projection on snout, and D. bicarinatus n. sp. with two projections on snout. Doryrhamphus e. excisus (a senior synonym of D. melanopleura), with modally 17-18 trunk rings ranges from eastern Africa and Persian Gulf to the west coast of the Americas. This pipefish, the most widely distributed syngnathid, exhibits some west-east clinal increase in counts of total rings and dorsal-fin rays. Doryrhamphus e. abbreviatus n. ssp. is a Red Sea endemic characterized by modally 16 trunk rings as well as by 26-28 total rings and 18-20 dorsal-fin rays. D. e. paulus (Revillagegido Is., Mexico) shares the modal count of 16 trunk rings, but has 30-32 total rings and 23-27 dorsal-fin rays. D. japonicus (19-20 trunk rings) is known only from the main islands of Japan, whereas D. bicarinatus (16 trunk rings) is known from Indian Ocean coasts of South Africa and Mozambique. The two-spine group includes D. negrosensis (2 subspecies) with 2 spines on ridges of tail rings in subadults and adults and A janssi (one spine on ridges of tail rings. A n. negrosensis (modally 15 trunk and 29 total rings) is known from Borneo to the Ryukyu Is. and southeastward to the New Hebrides, excluding Australia. D. n. malus (modally, 16 trunk and 31 total rings) is an Australian Great Barrier Reef endemic. D. janssi, with more tail rings than D. negrosensis (21-23 versus 13-16), is known from the eastern Indian Ocean (off NW Australia) and from the Gulf of Thailand and Philippines southeastward to New Guinea and NE Australia in the western Pacific Ocean. Planktonic young of A excisus and early juveniles of D. negrosensis are illustrated and briefly described. , Rhodes University Libraries (Digitisation)
