The stratigraphy and sedimentary history of the Molteno stage in part of the North-East Cape ProvinceTurner, Brian, Ronald January 1969 (has links)
Thesis submitted for the degree
of Master of Science in the
Faculty of Science, University
of the Witwatersrand / A stratigraphic and sedimentological study of the Molteno
sediments in the vicinity of Aliwal North and Burgersdorp
was made in order to determine stratigraphic relationships
and sedimentary history.
The stratigraphic study shows that the Molteno strata
is characterised by a cyclic pattern of deposition as
follows: (i) pebble conglomerate overlying an erosional
surface of low relief; (2) coarse - to medium- grained
sandstone; (3) fine-grained sandstone~siltstone, and
silty shale and (4)" shale with thin coal lenseso Three
such cycles have been recognised in the Burgersdorp area
and a single cycle at Aliwal North. The succession thins
northwards from about 500 feet around Burgersdorp to 300
feet at Aliwal North and on the basis of cyclic relationships
and sedimentary tectonics it is suggested that the
two upper cycles at Aliwal North are missing through
erosion or non-deposition and the lower cycle at Burgersdorp
is the stratigraphic equivalent of the Aliwal North
cycle.
The importance of the lower pebble bed arises from
the ease with which it can b e recognised and traced
throughout the area; moreover, it is tectonically significant
and represents a distinct stratigraphic break . As
a result the base of the Molteno is redefined in terms of
the lower pebble bed.
The limitations of the Indwe sandstone as a regional
stratigraphic marker are demonstrated. It is also recommended
that the Indwe sandstone be more strictly defined
in terms of modern stratigraphic nomenclature or dropped
completely from the literature .
The pattern of sedimentary transport was determined
mainly from cross-bedding measurements, though other sedimentary
structures such as erosion channels, ripple marks,
current lineations, and fossil logs have also been used .
These dimentary structures indicate shallow water conditions
of deposition with the dominant direction of transport
from the south and south east.
The sandstones have been classified petrographically
as subgreywackes. Metamorphic quartz and metaquartzite
rock fragments together with minor amounts of feldspar
are important constituents. Excluding micas the heavy
mineral suite is simple and consists of garnet, zircon,
tourmaline and rutile .
The Molteno sediments wer e derived chiefly from
high- rank metamorphic and granitic source rocks with only
neglible contributions from pre - existing sediments .
Integration of the stratigraphic and sedimentological
evidence shows that the upward-fining cycle of the
Molteno was deposited under both upper and lower flow
regime conditions. Facies analysis of the cycle suggests
that the conglomerate is the result of erosion and deposition
in a braided river channel wandering across a flood
plain. The overlying sandstone shows all the characteristics
of a modern point bar complex. The fine sandstone,
siltstone, and silty shale represent a transitional facies
deposited mainly from suspension in the quiet parts of the
channel or in abandoned channels during low water. If the
sandstone facies represents channel deposits then the shale
and coal facies probably records overbank deposits from
flood waters in the quiet backswamp areas of the flood plain.
The environment was probably permanently inundated by water
of such a depth as to allow for the growth of plants and the
formation of peat swamps.
The key to cyclic repetition appears to be related to
sedimentary tectonics and diastrophic movement associated
with the second phase of the Cape Orogeny. In terms of
sedimentary tectonics, and the classification scheme of
Krumbein and Sloss (1963), the lithologic association of
the Molteno sediments probably represents unstable shelf
or interior basin conditions . / AC 2018

Time, Altruism, and Hope: Factors that Increase the Consistency of Pro-environmental BehaviorsAlexander, Lauren Christina 01 January 2013 (has links)
A variety of factors have been shown to be associated with environmental attitudes but few studies demonstrate a link between these factors and pro-environmental behaviors. This study examined how a future temporal perspective, environmental altruism, and hope are related to (1) engaging in pro-environmental behaviors and (2) length of time engaging in pro-environmental behaviors. Participants completed the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (Zimbardo & Boyd, 1999), a measure of pro-environmental behaviors based on altruistic reasoning, the Trait Hope Scale (Snyder et al., 1991), and a self-report measure which requested that participants estimate how long they have engaged in pro-environmental behaviors. Statistical analyses supported the relationship between altruism and pro-environmental behaviors, however, the role of hope and a future orientation were not supported as potential motivators associated with engaging in pro-environmental behaviors. Altruism continues to be associated with engaging in pro-environmental behaviors, however, it is still unclear what moderates this relationship. Moreover, this research highlights the likelihood that engaging in pro-environmental behaviors is influenced by a complex web of motivating factors.

Structure of the Cape Fold Belt in the Ceres SyntaxisDe Beer, C. H 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 1989. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Ceres Syntaxis comprises that part of the Cape Fold Belt
Syntaxis that lies north of the Worcester Fault. Most of the
area consists of folded Cape Supergroup (primarily Witteberg
Group) rocks. Fold styles of all fold trends are essentially
the same. However, different multilayer rheologies led to the
development of either sinusoidal or kink-like fold geometries
in different parts of the cover sequence. The character of
Witteberg sediments led to the development of large megakink
folds and peculiar fold zones in this part of the sequence.
Fold trends in the Ceres Syntaxis vary between NW-SE, NE-SW
and E-W. The southern part of the area is dominated by the
NE-SW trend, with the NW-SE trend being only important in the
west. Interference between these two trends only exists in
the Witteberg Group, where it occurs as crossing linear fold
zones and conjugate, intersecting kink folds . Cross-folding
relationships in the north-eastern part of the Ceres Syntaxis
indicate that the area had been affected by two
contemporaneous, orthogonally opposed compressions that worked
simultaneously in different parts of the multilayer.
Differences in the magnitude of strain, or in the local timing
of fold initiation, produced local refolding or transecting
relationships. The microfabric of Witteberg sandstones
suggests deformation under conditions of low temperature and
pressure, as well as low strain rates. Some microfabrics also
indicate that substantial buckle shortening occurred while the
Middle and Upper Witteberg beds were still unlithified.
Isotopic dating of Cedarberg shale from both main trends did
not yield unequivocal results, mainly due to the
deformatio~al intensity. The positioning of the Cape
low
Fold
Belt Syntaxis was strongly influenced by basement tectonic
grain and basin floor relief. The NW and NE fold trends
formed on a heterogeneous basement that resolved the
stress configuration into components which
external .
acted
simultaneously towards the north-west and north-east. Ecca
and Beaufort Group sedimentation patterns in the western Karoo
corroborate the above findings. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Ceres-sintaks beslaan daardie deel van die sintaks van die

The role of cancer locus of control, hope and coping in cancer patients' subjective well-beingPau, Ka-yan, Barbara, 鮑家欣 January 2014 (has links)
Cancer has long been a prevalent illness in Hong Kong which caused tremendous stress on patients and their families. This study examined the cognitive process and behavioral efforts which related to cancer patients’ subjective well-being. Three hypotheses were proposed. First, higher internal locus of control over the cause of illness was hypothesized to relate to poorer subjective well-being through maladaptive coping. Second, higher internal locus of control over the course of illness may result in better subjective well-being through adaptive coping. Third, higher levels of hope may relate to better subjective well-being through adaptive coping. Ninety-eight patients with different types of cancers were recruited in this study. The results showed that internal locus of control over the cause of illness was not directly related to subjective well-being. The relationship between internal locus of control over the course of illness and social/family well-being was fully mediated by adaptive cognitive-behavioral coping and social and activity-engagement coping respectively in two separate mediation analyses. The relationship between levels of hope and social/family well-being was partially mediated by social and activity-engagement coping, while levels of hope significantly associated with social/family, emotional, functional and overall well-being. The study findings enhance understanding of close relationship between cognitive process and behavioral efforts in enhancing cancer patients’ adjustment to the illness. / published_or_final_version / Clinical Psychology / Master / Master of Social Sciences

The role of hope and rumination in childhood cancer adjustmentYuen, Nga-yee, Ada, 袁雅儀 January 2013 (has links)
In support of Snyder’s cognitive theory, hope has been found to be a positive factor in psychological adjustment among adult cancer patients and non-cancer paediatric patients with various illnesses. Nonetheless, Snyder’s cognitive theory of hope has not been specifically examined among childhood cancer patients and survivors. Unlike adult cancer patients, childhood cancer patients and survivors are characterized by early onset age in their cancer diagnosis which may mean that they face different psychological and physiological challenges. The identification of positive factors that attenuate negative psychological adjustment outcomes may be crucial in the development of effective therapeutic interventions.
Despite that previous studies support the correlation between hope and positive adjustment outcomes, the exact cognitive mechanism that underpins the cognitive theory of hope remains underexplored. Although Snyder postulated that hope is goal-directed thinking which comprises willpower and waypower, he failed to establish any association between hope and rumination. The role of rumination in predicting the onset of mood symptoms and maintaining psychopathology has been well-researched, but it is conceptually meaningful to investigate the potential association between hope and rumination and their respective roles in affecting psychological adjustments in cancer experiences.
The current thesis improves on the understanding of relationships between hope, rumination and cancer adjustment, and expands on studies of cancer adjustment by tapping into both positive and negative psychological outcomes, and examines how these two juxtaposed outcomes are associated with hope as mediated by positive and negative ruminations respectively.
Eighty-nine childhood cancer survivors from the Children’s Cancer Foundation in Hong Kong took part in questionnaires that measured their levels of hope, rumination, mood symptoms and self-perceived positive changes or post-traumatic growth (PTG). The findings suggest that hope is negatively correlated with depression and anxiety, which are specifically mediated by negative cancer-related rumination. Hope is also positively correlated with PTG, which is specifically mediated by positive cancer-related rumination. These results provide empirical evidence to support the postulation by Snyder that low hope individuals adjust poorly because they are more likely to have negative rumination. High hope individuals adjust better as they are more likely to engage in positive rumination which is associated with PTG. The overall findings provide a possible explanation for the cognitive mechanism that underlies hope.
A supplementary pilot study conducted measuring 20 childhood cancer patients’ hope level and mood symptoms over a period of nine months post-acute treatment also suggests patients have fewer prospective depressive symptoms have higher hope level in early measurement.
The findings of the current thesis have important clinical implications. The understanding of hope and its association with rumination and cancer adjustment may inform the specific development of hope-based therapeutic interventions for childhood cancer patients and survivors, such as the hope-based storybook developed in this study with the aim to increase the hope levels of childhood cancer patients. / published_or_final_version / Clinical Psychology / Doctoral / Doctor of Psychology
