Annual State of the Oceans reports
A series of reports on State of the Oceans around South Africa, produced by Branch Oceans and Coasts of South Africa’s Department of Environmental Affairs, was introduced in December 2006. The reports initially considered environmental parameters for the purposes of establishing general principles, such as annual cycles, and long-term trends, which may provide insight into the local effects of global warming and climate change. The reports were intended to provide an overview of marine...

A 2022 update to trends of seabirds and seals in Saldanha Bay, Western Cape
This report provides an update on the trends for seals and seabirds in Saldanha Bay for the year 2022. The Benguela Upwelling Ecosystem is home to various endemic seabirds and a single species of fur seal, exclusive to the southern African region (South Africa, Namibia, and Angola). The Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment (DFFE) has been conducting extensive monitoring of population trends, diet, and foraging behaviour of multiple seabird species. The objective is to gather...
Gliders In the Agulhas (GINA) Seaglider project
The Gliders IN the Agulhas (GINA) project is a multi-institutional effort to implement sustained glider observations around South Africa’s coastline to enhance existing regional networks and complement larger international observations systems such as the Ocean Gliders Boundary Ocean Observing Network (BOON). Ocean gliders are robotic platforms operated and piloted from land. The Seaglider during GINA was set-up to vertically profile the water column between depths of 0 and 1000m....
