Identification and delineation of groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) in the Khakea–Bray transboundaryaquifer region using geospatial techniques
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)Identifying and delineating groundwater-dependent ecosystems(GDEs) is critical in understanding their location, distribution andgroundwater allocation. However, this information is inadequatelyunderstood due to limited ... -
Influence of termites on the soil seed bank in an African savannah
(Wiley, 2018)In savannah ecosystems, termites drive key ecosystem processes, such as primary production through creation of patchiness in soil nutrients availability around their nests. In this study, we evaluated the role of termites ... -
Progress in the remote sensing of groundwater-dependent ecosystems in semi-arid environments
(Elsevier, 2021)Remote sensing of groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) has increased substantially in recent years. Of significant prominence, is the delineation and mapping of groundwater-dependent vegetation (GDV), species diversity, ... -
Will a rising sea sink some estuarine wetland ecosystems?
(Elsevier, 2016)Sea-level rise associated with climate change presents a major challenge to plant diversity and ecosystem service provision in coastal wetlands. In this study, we investigate the effect of sea-level rise on benthos, ...
