Spatial monitoring and reporting tool (smart) in mid-Zambezi valley, Zimbabwe: Implementation challenges and practices
(Wiley Open Access, 2021)
Biodiversity monitoring and data-management technologies can enhance the
protection of persecuted species, such as African elephants (Loxodonta africana), through providing management-relevant information. Implementing
these ...
Influence of multiple uses of water on the sustainability of communally-managed rural water supply systems in Zimbabwe
(IWA Publishing, 2021)
The utilisation of drinking water supply systems for productive uses is not a new practice in
Zimbabwe and the world over. This study sought to explore how multiple uses of water, in this case
community gardening as a ...
Effect of landscape pattern and spatial configuration of vegetation patches on urban warming and cooling in Harare metropolitan city, Zimbabwe
(Bellweather Publishing, 2021)
The spatial configuration of vegetation patches in the landscape has implications for the provision of ecosystem services, human adaptation to climate change, enhancement, or mitigation of urban heat island. Until recently, ...
Fine-scale multi-temporal and spatial analysis of agricultural drought in agro-ecological regions of Zimbabwe
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
This study utilised multi-temporal satellite data to characterize droughts across the five Agro-ecological zones (AEZ) of Zimbabwe at monthly, seasonal, sub-seasonal and annual scales (2000 to 2018) using a combination of ...
Impacts of eco-environmental quality, spatial configuration, and landscape connectivity of urban vegetation patterns on seasonal land surface temperature in Harare metropolitan city, Zimbabwe
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2022)
The study examined the impact of eco-environmental quality conditions, spatial configurations and landscape connectivity of urban vegetation on seasonal land surface temperature (LST) in Harare, Zimbabwe between May and ...
Understanding the influence of land cover change and landscape pattern change on evapotranspiration variations in Gwayi catchment of Zimbabwe
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2022)
Understanding dynamics in hydrological processes helps toimprove water resource management. Climate and land coverchanges influence ecohydrological processes. This study soughtto assess the influence of climate, land ...
Impacts of the spatial configuration of built-up areas and urban vegetation on land surface temperature using spectral and local spatial autocorrelation indices
(Remote Sensing Letters, 2022)
Understanding how the spatial configuration of land cover patterns of built-up areas and urban vegetation affect urban surface temperatures is crucial for improving the sustainability of cities as well as optimizing urban ...
