The geomorphic origin of large wetlands in Africa’s elevated drylands
The topographic, climatic and tectonic conditions of the sub-continent present opportunities to better understand the role that geomorphological processes play in determining the origin of large wetlands. Yet, there is limited information on the geomorphic origin of large wetlands in southern and eastern Africa due to wetland inaccessibility and limited wetland geomorphological studies that have been conducted in these regions. The current study …
Quaternary Environmental Change in Southern Africa
Ongoing climate change necessitates advances in our understanding of the interrelationships between climate, landscape-shaping processes and human activity over long time periods, especially in areas that are already climatically stressed. This volume presents new ideas on macroscale landscape evolution; mountain, fluvial and aeolian processes; and environments in southern Africa, a key region in the story of human evolution during the last two m…
The no development option versus the development option in an underdeveloped area
The ‘no development’ option is traditionally considered as one of the alternatives in an environmental impact assessment (EIA). This paper highlights the difficulty of considering this option in an underdeveloped context, using the example of an EIA for a power line to an ecotourism development in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The area is ecologically sensitive and there was opposition from environmental action groups, but there are urgent and bas…
