  • A Journey to Limpopo Wetlands
    DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, ENVIRONMENT AND TOURISM STATE OF WETLANDS IN THE LIMPOPO PROVINCE Directorate: Biodiversity Management C/o Suid & Voortrekker Street, POLOKWANE, 0700, Private Bag X9484, POLOKWANE, 0700 Tel: (015) 293 8300, Fax: (015) 295 4120 Website: http/www.limpopo.gov.za 1. Introduction Ramsar Convention on wetlands conservation and wise use was adopted in Ramsar city, Iran in 1971 as contribution towards achieving sustainable development throughout the world. Ramsar Convention also works hand in hand with other convention such as Convention on biological diversity and other related organizations. As contracting party (country member) of Ramsar convention South Africa had designated about 12 wetlands as Ramsar site or site of international importance. Nysvley Nature Reserve and Makuleke floodplain are the two Ramsar sites in the Limpopo Province. According to Ramsar Convention wetlands are area of marshes, fen, peatland, wet grassland, lakes, estuaries, mangroves and coral reefs, whether natural or artificial, permanent or temporary, with water that is static or flowing, fresh, brackish or salt, including areas of marine water the depth of which at low tide does not exceed six metres. Wetlands have different names following the four dominant languages in the Limpopo province, nhlangasi (in Tsonga), Mohlaka or Monyuka (in Pedi) Maroroma or Matzhava (in Venda) and Vlei (in Afrikaans) Conservation, wise use and management of wetlands requires partnership of relevant government departments (e.g. Agriculture, Water Affairs and Forestry, Environmental Affairs and Tourism), local authorities (Municipalities and traditional), Non-governmental organizations (e.g. Working for Wetland, Mondi wetlands project) and other relevant research institutions. As a results wetland stakeholders in the Limpopo Province network and interact through the Limpopo wetlands Forum which is informally coordinated and chaired by SANBI (Working for Wetland) World Wetlands Day is celebrated every year on 2nd of February throughout South Africa and international community.

Potentially Harmful Trace Elements (PHTEs) in the groundwater of Greater Giyani, Limpopo Province, South Africa: possible health implications By LIVHUWANI PORTIA MUNYANGANE A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master in Geology (MSc Geology) in Medical Geology Department of Geology Faculty of Science UNIVERSITY OF JOHANNESBURG Supervisor: Prof. Hassina Mouri Co-Supervisor: Prof. Jan Kramers 2015 ABSTRACT Most rural communities in developing countries rely on borehole water as their only source of water. Since borehole water comes from underground, it is often considered pure and clean, but this is frequently not the case. Groundwater contains certain amounts of trace elements that may become deleterious to human health. The objectives of this investigation were to assess the concentration levels of Potential Harmful Trace Elements (PHTEs) and their spatial distribution patterns in borehole water in the Greater Giyani area of Limpopo, South Africa, and the potential human health risks associated with this.

  • A Case Study of Mankweng Township in South Africa
    TV White Space Networks Deployment: A Case Study of Mankweng Township in South Africa Millicent T. Ramoroka1, Moshe T. Masonta2, and Adrian Kliks3(✉) 1 TV White Spaces Centre, University of Limpopo, Polokwane, South Africa [email protected] 2 Meraka Institute, Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), Pretoria, South Africa [email protected] 3 Poznan University of Technology, Poznan, Poland [email protected] Abstract. The role of cheap and easy access to various telecommunication facilities is crucial for further community development. Such an observation is of particular importance for the developing countries all over the world since reliable and open access to communication systems can fasten the reduction of the development gap. In this work we analyze the benefits that can be obtained by application of TV White Space network, i.e. the network that operates in vacated TV band in a cognitive manner. The whole analysis is conducted based on specific use-case, i.e. the test network deployed in the Mankweng Township. Keywords: e-Learning · e-Surveillance · Mankweng Township · TV white spaces 1 Introduction Recently, both developed and developing countries are experiencing unprecedented high urbanization rates due to ‘modern community development’ and high standard services provided in building smart town and cities through knowledge economy [1, 2]. Urban areas, mostly aspired smart towns and cities, have become places suitable for making a living as they effectively provide people with the services they want and need as compared to townships and rural areas [1–4]. As a result, the majority of people in developing countries reside in urban areas in search of quality life.

Visibility: Low visibility, temperature:17˚, wind gusts: 20 kts, wind speed: 9 Meteorological Information kts. Number of people on 1 + 0 No. of people injured 0 No. of people killed 1 board Synopsis The pilot was the sole occupant on board the Robinson RH44 helicopter. He flew the helicopter from Bela- Bela to Roedtan. The pilot lost sight of the ground in the process of avoiding the thunderstorm. A thunderstorm intercepted the flight path to Roedtan. .The pilot was fatally injured. The helicopter was destroyed in the accident. An investigation determined that the pilot may have experienced spatial disorientation from which he could not recover. It resulted in the helicopter colliding with terrain (controlled flight into terrain – CFIT). The helicopter was investigated and no abnormality was identified with its operation, hence its operation was determined to be irrelevant to the accident.
