Minimum Wage Enforcement in South Africa Measurement and Determinants by Mayet, Natasha

“…A multivariate analysis is employed, using standard OLS, probit, and quantile regression techniques to investigate the determinants of the probability of a worker being violated by their non-compliant employer, as well as of the depth and extent of the violation, that is, the shortfall of their wage from the minimum. Another innovation of this paper, in addition to the use of the Kanbur index as a measure of violation, is the introduction of a number of spatial/density variables, such as the log of workers per square kilometre, the density of labour inspectors in a District Council, and the unemployment density in the area. …”

Long-term climate variability at the Prince Edward Islands in the Southern Ocean by Shangheta, Anna Liisa Penelao Tulimevava

“…The change in decadal variability a decrease in air pressure of 4 hPa since the late 1990s to late 2000s, which coincided with a decrease in minimum and maximum air temperatures of 1°C over the same period; decrease in westerly wind and an increase in the northerly component of the wind, which would explain the decrease of inshore sea surface temperature a while thereafter. …”

The Hydroclimate Variability of Central Africa: seasonal cycle, mechanisms, teleconnections and impacts on neighbouring regions by Longandjo, Georges-Noel Tiersmondo

“…The aims of thesis are to enhance our fundamental understanding of Central Africa rainfall and the mechanisms involved in its seasonal and interannual variability as well as to assess how an atmospheric general circulation model forced by observed sea surface temperature (SST), the ECHAM5.3 model, does represent the main features of Central Africa hydroclimate variability. …”
