A phytosociological survey of selected plant communities in the northern Cederberg was made using small (4-16 m') plot sizes. A satisfactory phytosociological table was obtained, and plant-environmental relationships were inferred from it. The use of small plot sizes enabled ecological information about plant communities to be quickly, easily and efficiently obtained. This method could be of considerable use for establishing and monitoring vegetation patterns.

Globally, at least half of the released prisoner population will return to incarceration before the end of their first year in society. Going against generally accepted notions, deliberation should be given to the existence of transience in habitual recidivists' or habitual convicted criminal offenders' (HCCOs') life course. The HCCO is habitually, chronically, or serially recidivistic (above the average recorded number of arrests and imprisonment, i.e., anything above or equal to five). Furthermore, transience can be considered as junctures of socio-cognitive unsteadiness, impermanence, and inconstancy that leads to the uncoupling of positive bonds within human and environmental relationships. Accordingly, this chapter discusses two outlooks of the transient state of HCCO: the habitual prisoner revolving door syndrome and habitual transient life course disconnect. Finally, this work concludes by promoting the reentry and rehabilitation of convicted criminal offenders based on conditions of productive law-abiding citizenship.
