Assessing the Effects of Land Use on Surface Water Quality in the Lower uMfolozi Floodplain System, South Africa
Chirima, George; Dlamini, Mandla; Jovanovic, Nebo; Adam, Elhadi (International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021-01-11)This study investigated the impacts of cultivation on water and soil quality in the lower uMfolozi floodplain system in KwaZulu-Natal province, South Africa. We did this by assessing seasonal variations in purposefully ... -
A comparison of ensemble and deep learning algorithms to model groundwater levels in a data-scarce aquifer of Southern Africa
Gaffoor, Zaheed; Pietersen, Kevin; Jovanovic, Nebo (MDPI, 2022)Machine learning and deep learning have demonstrated usefulness in modelling various groundwater phenomena. However, these techniques require large amounts of data to develop reliable models. In the Southern African ... -
Evaluating the effects and benefits of cover crops in citrus orchards: a review
Silwana, Sibongiseni; Jovanovic, Nebo; Mulidzi, Azwimbavhi Reckson (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2023)Cover crops are used in sustainable agricultural practices to improve soil quality and minimise the effect of climate change, water restrictions and drought.

Use of multi-source remotely sensed data in monitoring the spatial distribution of pools and pool dynamics along non-perennial rivers in semi-arid environments, South Africa
Maswanganye, Sagwati Eugene; Dube, Timothy; Jovanovic, Nebo (Taylor and Francis Group, 2022)This study explored the use of multi-source remotely sensed data in monitoring the spatial distribution of pools and pool dynamics in two distinct semi-arid sites in South Africa. The factors that control the pool ... -
Using the water balance approach to understand pool dynamics along non-perennial rivers in the semi-arid areas of South Africa
Maswanganye, Sagwati E.; Dube, Timothy; Jovanovic, Nebo (Elsevier, 2022)The Touws River in the Klein Karoo region of South Africa Study focus: This study sought to improve the understanding of pool dynamics along non-perennial rivers (NPRs) by utilising the water balance approach to assess the ...
