Hydrological modelling and climate adaptation under changing climate: A review with a focus in sub-Saharan Africa
(MDPI, 2022)
Empirical evidence continues to show that climate change remains a threat to the stability
of the hydrologic system. As the climate system interacts with the hydrologic cycle, one significant
repercussion of global warming ...
Spatial clustering of vegetation fire intensity using modis satellite data
(MDPI, 2022)
This work analyses the spatial clustering of fire intensity in Zimbabwe, using remotely
sensed Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) active fire occurrence data. In
order to investigate the spatial pattern ...
Investigating changes over time of annual rainfall in Zimbabwe
(Copernicus Publications, 2010)
There is increasing concern in southern Africa
about the possible decline of rainfall as a result of global
warming. Some studies concluded that average rainfall in
Zimbabwe had declined by 10% or 100 mm during the ...
Decorum in nature: Impala (Aepyceros melampus melampus) dung middens follow spatial point patterns in Mukuvisi Woodland, Zimbabwe
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)
Guided by the Optimum Foraging Theory,the Avoidance Concept, and assuming that the impala Aepyceros melampus melampus defecate purposevely at dung middens, we hypothe-sized that the impala’s dung midden locations do not: ...
Scenarios analysis using water-sensitive urban design principles: A case study of the Cape Flats Aquifer in South Africa
(Springer, 2020)
A feasibility assessment was undertaken on the application ofwater-sensitive urban design (WSUD) for the Cape Flats Aquifer in
Cape Town, South Africa, at the local scale. The study contributes towards the planning of ...
Sandstone reservoir zonation of the north-western Bredasdorp Basin South Africa using core data
(Elsevier, 2021)
This study delineates sandstone reservoir flow zones in the north-western Bredasdorp Basin, offshore South
Africa, using conventional core porosity and permeability data. The workflow begins by integrating sedimen-
tology ...

From conflict to collaboration: Atewa forest governance
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)
The problem of forest degradation and loss has become theconcern of many countries. To address this challenge, somecollaborate in sustainable forest management. The mostsuccessful outcomes, however, are observed where ...
Hierarchical Bayesian geostatistics for C stock prediction in disturbed plantation forest in Zimbabwe
(Ecological Informatics, 2022)
We develop and present a novel Bayesian hierarchical geostatistical model for the prediction of plantation forest carbon stock (C stock) in the eastern highlands of Zimbabwe using multispectral Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 ...
Defining regional and local sediment sources in the ancestral Colorado River system: A heavy mineral study of a mixed provenance unit in the Fish creek-vallecito basin, Southern California
(MDPI, 2023)
The Colorado River has flowed across the dextral strike-slip plate boundary between the
North American and Pacific plates since the latest Miocene or earliest Pliocene. The Fish Creek-
Vallecito Basin (FCVB) lies on the ...
