Processed CTD discrete observations from the Africana Voyage 006, February 1983

Neil Brown MK3 and MK4 Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) instruments were used to measure pressure, temperature and conductivity through the water column during research and monitoring cruises between 1983 and 2000. Here, we present processed CTD discrete data from the upcast collected between 22 February 1983 and 28 February 1983 during Voyage 006 on the Africana in the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) region on the west coast of South Africa.

Raw SADCP data from the Integrated Ecosystem Programme: Southern Benguela (IEP:SB) on the Algoa Voyage 202, September 2013

This is raw ship mounted ADCP data from the Integrated Ecosystem Programme: Southern Benguela on the Algoa Voyage 202, 9 to 19 September, 2013. This was the pilot cruise for the IEP:SB for site determination and gear testing.The Integrated Ecosystem Programme: Southern Benguela is a multi-disciplinary, multi-institutional platform to undertake relevant science in the Southern Benguela; also functioning as a platform for collaboration and learning. All projects aim to develop an ecosystem indicator that can be used to effectively monitor and understand the Southern Benguela i.e physical, chemical, planktonic, microbial, seabird and benthic ecosystem indicators, used for ecosystem-based management.

Raw TSG data from the St Helena Bay Monitoring Line (SHBML) on the Algoa Voyage 195, March 2013

This is raw Thermosalinograph (TSG) data from the St Helena Bay Monitoring Line, which now falls under the Integrated Ecosystem Programme: Southern Benguela, on the Algoa Voyage 196, 4 to 8 March, 2013.The St Helena Bay Monitoring Line was initiated as a BENEFIT-driven project on "shipboard monitoring" which linked with similar lines run in Namibia and Angola. The aims are to obtain seasonal and interannual information on the hydrology and productivity of the area. Data on harmful algal blooms, low oxygen water and intrusions of Agulhas Bank water along the west coast will also be collected. A long-term, multi-decadel time-series (from 1951 onward) of information already exists for this important region and has continued in the form of the IEP:SB to detect long-term changes in the hydrology and the plankton, which are important for the detection of regime shifts.

Simulated advection patterns of Engraulis encrasicolus and Sardinops sagax larvae across South Africa's inshore Marine Protected Areas

Larval anchovy and sardine dispersal patterns in South Africa's exclusive economic zone (2010 - 2014) by Rasehlomi et al. (2025), published in Frontiers in Marine Science, investigates the dispersal of larval anchovy and sardine (https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2024.1508479). We simulated larval dispersal patterns using a simplified model within the Java-based ICHTHYOP particle tracking tool. This model compared outputs from the 3km grid resolution CROCO model and the 8km-resolution Global Ocean Reanalyses (GLORYS). Virtual particles were released from the surface of 14 inshore Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), from iSimangaliso MPA (on the east coast) including the Agulhas Bank (on the south) to Childs Bank MPA (on the west coast). Releases occurred on October 1st for five consecutive years, starting in 2010. These particles drifted for 30 days, with their positions recorded every 30 minutes. Particles that exited the model's boundaries or became stranded on beaches were excluded from...
