Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references.<br>Sand is a resource in high demand for urban expansion and development. Sand mining operations are often located on the edges of cities. The Macassar Dunes are an important source of building sand for the City of Cape Town. The area is located within the Cape Floral Kingdom, the smallest and richest of the six floral kingdoms of the world. The Macassar Dunes area has been identified as a core flora conservation site due to its unique habitat diversity and quality. South Africa is a developing country and this case study is used to highlight the tensions t

Thesis (MScEng (Civil Engineering))--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The hypothesis postulated in this research, namely that the effectiveness of natural and constructed buffer dune systems can be assessed by a set of indicators that defines the integrity of the dune system and triggers informed management decisions, was evaluated and proved to be essentially true. Two key objectives, namely (1) the identification of key indicators that define the buffer dune integrity; and (2) the development of a scientifically defendable and practical checklist-based method of g

Abstract:

The importance of understanding the ecological functioning of coastal dune systems is emphasized as being fundamental to the correct management of the dune landscape. Dune vegetation along the Eastern Cape coastline, from Cape St Francis in the west to Kei Mouth in the east was described in terms of the distribution and phytochorological affinities of the taxa. At a regional scale species distribution was strongly influenced by both the climate, particularly rainfall, and the phytochorological affinities of the taxa. Seven communities were defined using TWINSPAN, and the interrelationships bet

Abstract:

Bibliography: pages 120-128.<br>The study is primarily concerned with the identification of topographical dunes and their classification as either sand ramps or climbing dunes. Topographical dunes in two semi-arid regions, namely the southern Kalahari (a summer rainfall region) and the Breede River Valley (a winter rainfall region), were investigated. The study also evaluates the palaeoenvironmental significance of the topographical dunes and attempts a palaeoenvironmental reconstruction within the study regions. The two different rainfall regimes facilitated regional comparisons with respect

Abstract:

A study of the dynamics and functions of a coastal dunefield at the Bushman’s River Mouth in Kenton-on-Sea was conducted to provide essential information for the formulation of a management strategy based on an ecosystem approach. Bi-monthly tacheometric surveys were undertaken at the Westbourne Road Car Park dunefield to investigate the sedimentological processes. Changes in the topography, the amount and rate of sand accretion were monitored. Accretion and progradation were the dominant long-term sedimentological processes at the site. Long-term spatial variation in these processes correspon

Abstract:

Rehabilitation is a dynamic process influenced by factors related to more than one field of ecology. It is therefore necessary to consider all these components when assessing the rehabilitation, although in the initial stages the successful revegetation of the disturbed areas is the most important criterion. Richards Bay Minerals, on whose mining site this project was carried out, is dredge mining heavy minerals on the north coast of Natal, where they have rehabilitated mined areas since 1978. This project has been carried out to establish: 1) The success of their dune forest rehabilitation us

The intensive observation phase of the Sand Dune Acoustic Experiment in May 2013 is planed based on the resluts of the pilot experiment, which achieve finer measurement: multi-beam echo sounder. The characteristics of sand dunes can be obtained by comparing the results of 2012 and 2013. Furthermore

The largest amplitude of these sand dunes is about 16m. Underwater acoustic transmission is affected by this topographic feature, and also has three dimensional effects. In this research the 2-D and 3-D underwater acoustic propagation models (RAM and FOR3D respectively), are used to simulate acoustic propagation in the region.

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>工程科學及海洋工程學研究所<br>102<br>There are many underwater sand dunes in the upper continental slope at the depth of 160m to 600m in northern South China Sea. These sand dunes are special as they are the largest sand dunes observed with amplitude up to 16m. Underwater acoustics transmission will be affected by these sand dunes and in turn produce the three dimensional effects. Due to the variation of topography in this area, if we use the 2-D (r,z) model, it will ignore the variation of horizontal direction and cause the θ-coupling disappear, causing us unable to describe the three-dime

Because of this special topography, when the sound conducts underwater, it will be affected by these sand dunes and cause strong scattering and coupling effects. In this study, three different acoustic models (2D: RAM, Nx2D, 3D: FOR3D) are used to investigate the acoustic characteristic on seabed-dune terrain, and analyze coupling effect caused by the conduction under South China Sea within the coherence time. In numerical simulation, we use three-dimensional
