Use of multispectral satellite data to assess impacts of land management practices on wetlands in the Limpopo Transfrontier River Basin, South Africa
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2022)
The study sought to assess the impacts of land use and land cover (LULC) changes on two wetland systems (Makuleke and Nylsvley Nature Reserve) in the Limpopo Transfrontier River Basin (LTRB) in South Africa between 2014 ...
Spectral classification, mapping and physical habitat implications of a riparian invasion by Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb. in the Touws River, Klein Karoo, South Africa
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2022)
This paper investigates the invasion of a reach of the Touws River by the deciduous alien tree Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb. (Pink Tamarisk, Saltcedar). The objectives of the paper were to investigate ...
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
(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 ...
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 ...

Investigating seawater intrusion in republic of South Africa’s heuningnes, Cape Agulhas using hydrogeochemistry and seawater fraction techniques
(MDPI, 2023)
The Heuningnes Catchment in the Republic of South Africa was used as a case study in
this research to describe the application of saltwater fraction/quantification and hydrogeochemistry
methods to evaluate the extent of ...
Two pulses of Mesoproterozoic intra-plate magmatism in the heart of the Palaeoproterozoic Ubendian Domain of northern Malawi
(Elsevier, 2023)
Two Mesoproterozoic anorogenic igneous events are recorded in the Palaeoproterozoic Ubendian Domain in
northern Malawi. The oldest is represented by the Mwakikome orthogneiss, a small peraluminous, sub-alkaline
and ferroan ...
Modelling the distribution of the invasive Ziziphus mauritiana along road corridors in Zimbabwe
(Wiley, 2019)
We investigate how human fruit consumption affects the spread of the alien invasive
Ziziphus mauritiana along road corridors in northern Zimbabwe. A field survey was
conducted to identify and map Z. Mauritiana stems at ...
The use of stable isotopes to identify surface water–groundwater interaction in the Kruger National Park, South Africa
(South African Water Research Commission, 2023)
The role of groundwater, in general, is often overlooked in freshwater ecosystem management policies and in the management of South Africa’s flagship conservation area, the Kruger National Park (KNP). To address this gap, ...
Trends in elephant poaching in the Mid-Zambezi Valley, Zimbabwe: Lessons learnt and future outlook
(African Journal of Ecology, 2023)
Background: The conservation of African elephants (Loxodonta africana) has important ecological, economical, cultural and aesthetic values, at both local and global levels (Pittiglio et al., 2014). Despite the important ...
