SACOFS-West Hindcast coastal ocean model dataset of temperature, salinity, and currents for False Bay, Table Bay, and St. Helena Bay from 1993 to 2019
The South African Coastal Ocean Forecast System Southeast (SACOFS) is run using the Coastal and Regional Ocean COmmunity (CROCO) modelling system. The SACOFS-West model domain encompasses St. Helena Bay, Table Bay and False Bay, located on the west coast of South Africa (18.56° to 20.00° E and -36.09° to -30.00° S). The model curvilinear grid has a variable horizontal grid resolution (0.35–4 km) which increases toward the coast. The model has 30 terrain-following vertical levels. The output...

Experimental manipulations of the density of Cymbula granatina on rocky shore community
Densities of a commonly-harvested intertidal limpet Cymbula granatina were manipulated at two sites within a no-take marine protected area on the west coast of the Cape Peninsula in South Africa, using four treatment levels ranging from zero to maximum natural densities, together with control plots, to evaluate the effects of different harvesting intensities on rocky shore community composition. Following removal or thinning of C. granatina, community composition changed: cover of corticated...
