Historical baselines and a century of change in the demersal fish assemblages on South Africa's Agulhas Bank by Currie, Jock

“…Valuable additions include a) documentation of the extent to which demersal assemblages have transformed during the last century at three representative inshore sites; b) estimates of current abundances relative to pre-disturbed baselines at those sites, which c) highlights drastic local depletion for certain taxa and d) reveals substantial abundance increases of certain species during the post-industrial fishing period; e) novel evidence of distribution trends in south coast demersal species; and f) identification of trends in the average distribution of the demersal fish assemblage, suspected to be climate-forced. …”

Insect succession and changes in the soil pH and electrical conductivity associated with decomposing pig carcasses on the Table Mountain National Park of the Western Cape Province... by Adetimehin, Adeyemi

“…Also, no studies in South Africa have investigated how the changes in carrion-impacted soil chemistry can be used in post-mortem interval estimations. Therefore, to establish baseline carrion entomofauna data, this study investigated the insect assemblages associated with decomposing neonate pig carcasses, alongside the impact of carcass decomposition on soil, carcass skin, and larval mass(es) chemistry, on a monthly temporal scale across the spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons. …”
