Assessment of the conservation priority status of South African estuaries for use in management and water allocation

Author: Turpie, JK ; Adams, JB ; Joubert, A ; Harrison, TD ; Colloty, BM ; Maree, RC ; Whitfield, AK ; Wooldridge, TH ; Lamberth, SJ ; Taljaard, Susan ; Van Niekerk, Lara Date: Apr 2002 The future health and productivity of South Africa's approximately 250 estuaries is dependent on two main factors; management and freshwater inputs. Both management and water allocation decisions involve trade-offs between conservation and ... Read more
Bridging the Gap: Experiences of communicating climate information between producers and end-users in southern Africa

Author: Joubert, A ; Archer, Emma RM ; Cull, T ; Davis, C ; Engelbrecht, F ; Landman, W ; Vincent, K Date: Mar 2012 Climate change information is difficult to communicate beyond the scientific community, due to its inherent uncertainty and complexity, yet at the same time end users need access to the information in a format that is appropriate to their ...

hFOB 1.19 osteoblast cells grown on a biomimetic biphasic nanoscaffold: an in vitro evaluation for possible bone tissue engineering

Author: Du Preez, Ilse ; Richter, Wim ; Van Papendorp, D ; Joubert, A Date: 2018 Much research over the past five decades has focussed on the repair and replacement of bone. Recently, the research focus has shifted to nanotechnology since it provides a platform from which to alter and possibly improve materials’ properties. ... Read more
An in vitro and in vivo study on the properties of hollow polycaprolactone cell-delivery particles

Author: Stander, BA ; van Vollenstee, FA ; Kallmeyer, K ; Potgieter, M ; Joubert, A ; Swanepoel, Andri ; Kotzé-Jacobs, Lara ; Moolman, S ; Pepper, MS Date: Jul 2018 The field of dermal fillers is evolving rapidly and numerous products are currently on the market. Biodegradable polymers such as polycaprolactone (PCL) have been found to be compatible with several body tissues, and this makes them an ideal ... Read more
Nano-calciumphosphate scaffold generation for bone repair/replacement: elucidating the signalling response and cell cycle

Author: Wepnener, I ; Richter, W ; Joubert, A Date: 01 Sep 2010 Strong, bioinert materials have always been the focus for bone replacement and repair. This practice has since moved towards materials that can mimic living tissue and aid the healing process (i.e. be replaced by natural bone); thus materials ... Read more
Novel nano-calcium phosphate generation to improve cell activity in bone restructuring

Author: Wepener, I ; Richter, W ; Joubert, A Date: Jan 2010 This presentation addresses the replacement and repair of bone. There are four types of biomaterials; namely biotoxic, bioinert, bioactive and ioresorbable. The most abundant inorganic mineral in bone is hydroxyapatite, which is a good candidate ... Read more
Regional scenarios of future climate change over southern Africa

Author: Tadross, M ; Davis, C ; Engelbrecht, F ; Joubert, A ; Archer, Emma RM Date: Nov 2011 In this chapter, the authors provide projections of regional climate change so that decision-makers can better understand the nature of the projected changes, and how to take this into account when formulating and implementing adaptive strategies. Read more
Seasonal forecasts: communicating current climate variability in southern Africa

Author: Landman, WA ; Tadross, M ; Engelbrecht, F ; Archer, Emma RM ; Joubert, A Date: Nov 2011 In southern Africa, seasonal rainfall and temperature forecasts have been made for almost two decades already and these forecasts have been developed to improve the ability of users to cope with fluctuations in rainfall and temperatures on a ...

Southern Africa’s climate: Current state and recent historical changes

Author: Davis, C ; Joubert, A Date: Nov 2011 Southern Africa is a predominantly semi-arid region with high rainfall variability, characterised by frequent droughts and floods. It is also widely recognised as one of the most vulnerable regions to climate change because of low levels of ... Read more
