Radium isotopes as tracers of coastal circulation pathways in the Mid-Atlantic Bight
… The motivation was to provide evidence of transport routes for shelfwater that could be important to the balance of shelf-slope exchange, as well as to the biogeochemical fluxes across this crucial ocean boundary. The four radium isotopes, with half-lives of 4 days to 1600 years, a coastal …

Geospatial Analysis of Informal Settlement Development in Cape Town
… followed along major formal and external transport routes, as well as informal and internal transport networks. Densification was also heavily driven by open space. There were also individual and unique internal development dynamics in each informal settlement. These were driven by slopes, …

Saldanha Bay as a living space: negotiating (re)source dynamics in a water scarce Bay
… a port city, it is a place where water systems, transport routes, and industrial activity meet and intermingle. This thesis focuses on the threat that is posed to the ecosystems of the bay through repeatedly introducing copious amounts of ballast water from the holds of international cargo ships …

Sources and Targets of Trophic Factors in the Avian Locus Coeruleus and Oculomotor System
My dissertation focuses on sources and transport routes of neurotrophic factors in the avian nervous system. How trophic signals are transmitted in the nervous system is a key question in neuroscience research. Cells in the nervous system can retrieve trophic signals by two distinct routes. One is …

To reimagine the integration of public transport with high-density neighbourhoods
Transport is the network that moves people between places. It provides a means of access and opportunity. Transport routes in Cape Town have become expansive due to urban sprawl. There is an unjust spatial economy due to modern and apartheid planning. Poorer urban residents live far away from …

NUCLEAR ENVELOPE TRANSMEMBRANE PROTEIN DISTRIBUTION AND TRANSPORT STUDIED BY SINGLE-MOLECULE MICROSCOPY
… two major questions: First, the localization and transport rate of NETs, and second, the transport route taken by NETs to reach the INM. Since NETs are involved with many of the mechanisms used to maintain cellular homeostasis, it is important to quantitatively determine the spatial locations of …
