  • A Numerical Taxonomy of the Genus Rosularia (Dc.) Stapf from Pakistan and Kashmir
    Pak. J. Bot., 44(1): 349-354, 2012. A NUMERICAL TAXONOMY OF THE GENUS ROSULARIA (DC.) STAPF FROM PAKISTAN AND KASHMIR GHULAM RASOOL SARWAR* AND MUHAMMAD QAISER Centre for Plant Conservation, University of Karachi, Karachi-75270, Pakistan Federal Urdu University of Arts, Science and Technology, Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Karachi, Pakistan Abstract Numerical analysis of the taxa belonging to the genus Rosularia (DC.) Stapf was carried out to find out their phenetic relationship. Data from different disciplines viz. general, pollen and seed morphology, chemistry and distribution pattern were used. As a result of cluster analysis two distinct groups are formed. Out of which one group consists of R. sedoides (Decne.) H. Ohba and R. alpestris A. Boriss. while other group comprises R. adenotricha (Wall. ex Edgew.) Jansson ssp. adenotricha , R. adenotricha ssp. chitralica, G.R. Sarwar, R. rosulata (Edgew.) H. Ohba and R. viguieri (Raym.-Hamet ex Frod.) G.R. Sarwar. Distribution maps of all the taxa, along with key to the taxa are also presented. Introduction studied the genus Rosularia and indicated that the genus is polyphyletic. Mayuzumi & Ohba (2004) analyzed the Rosularia is a small genus composed of 28 species, relationships within the genus Rosularia. According to distributed in arid or semiarid regions ranging from N. different workers Rosularia is polyphyletic. Africa to C. Asia through E. Mediterranean (Mabberley, There are no reports on numerical studies of 2008). Some of the taxa of Rosularia are in general Crassulaceae except the genus Sedum from Pakistan cultivation and several have great appeal due to their (Sarwar & Qaiser, 2011). The primary aim of this study is extraordinarily regular rosettes on the leaf colouring in to analyze diagnostic value of morphological characters in various seasons.

The present geological period has more species than any other, yet the current rate of extinction of species is greater now than at any time in the past. Ecosystems and communities are being degraded and destroyed, and species are being driven to extinction. The species that persist are losing genetic variation as the number of individuals in populations shrinks, unique populations and subspecies are destroyed, and remaining populations become increasingly isolated from one another. The cause of this loss of biological diversity at all levels is the range of human activity that alters and destroys natural habitats to suit human needs.” (Primack, 2002). CapeNature launched its State of Biodiversity Programme (SoBP) to assess and monitor the state of biodiversity in the Western Cape in 1999. This programme delivered its first report in 2002 and these reports are updated every five years. The current report (2007) reports on the changes to the state of vertebrate biodiversity and land under conservation usage.

  • 6 the Environments Associated with the Proposed Alternative Sites
    6 THE ENVIRONMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPOSED ALTERNATIVE SITES The purpose of this section is to describe the environments associated with the proposed alternative sites. The information contained herein was extracted from the relevant specialist studies. Please refer to Section 3.5 for a list of all the relevant specialists and their fields of expertise and to Appendix E for the original specialist reports. 6.1 Brazil Site 6.1.1 Physical (a) Location The Brazil site is situated in the Kleinzee / Nolloth region of the Northern Cape, within the jurisdiction of the Nama-Khoi Municipality ( Figure 16). The site has the following co-ordinates: 29°48’51.40’’S and 17°4’42.21’’E. The Brazil site is situated approximately 500 km north of Cape Town and 100 km west-southwest of Springbok. Kleinzee is located 15 km north, Koiingnaas is 90 km south and Kamieskroon is located 90 km southeast of the Brazil site. Figure 16: Location of the proposed Brazil site in relation to the surrounding areas (Bulman, 2007) Nuclear 1 EIA: Final Scoping Report Eskom Holdings Limited 6-1 Issue 1.0 / July 2008 (b) Topography The topography in the Brazil region is largely flat, with only a gentle slope down to the coast. The coast is composed of both sandy and rocky shores. The topography is characterised by a small fore-dune complex immediately adjacent to the coast with the highest elevation of approximately nine mamsl. Further inland the general elevation depresses to about five mamsl in the middle of the study area and then gradually rises towards the east.

The prospecting right area is located within the Prieska District Municipalities of the Northern Cape Province. The company has submitted a Prospecting Right application, which triggers the requirement to apply for Environmental Authorisation. A terrestrial ecological assessment is required in order to consider the impacts that the proposed activities might have on the ecological integrity of the property. This terrestrial ecological assessment report describes the ecological characteristics of the proposed prospecting area, identifies the source of impacts from the operation, and assesses these impacts, as well as the residual impacts after closure. A desktop study and field investigation was performed to obtain ecological information for the proposed study area and identify the ecological characteristics and sensitivity of the site. Six plant communities were identified on site of which the riparian woodland along with the ephemeral rivers, streams and drainage lines are considered to be of very high sensitivity due to their vital ecological and hydrological functionality and significance.

  • Climate Variability, Climate Change and Water Resource Strategies for Small Municipalities
    Climate variability, climate change and water resource strategies for small municipalities Water resource management strategies in response to climate change in South Africa, drawing on the analysis of coping strategies adopted by vulnerable communities in the Northern Cape province of South Africa in times of climate variability REPORT TO THE WATER RESEARCH COMMISSION P Mukheibir D Sparks University of Cape Town WRC Project: K5/1500 September 2005 Climate variability, climate change and water resource strategies for small municipalities i Executive summary Background and motivation In many parts of the world, variability in climatic conditions is already resulting in wide ranging impacts, especially on water resources and agriculture. Climate variability is already being observed to be increasing, although there remain uncertainties about the link to climate change. However, the link to water management problems is obvious. Water is a limiting resource for development in South Africa and a change in water supply could have major implications in most sectors of the economy, especially in the agriculture sector. Factors that contribute to vulnerability in water systems in southern Africa include seasonal and inter-annual variations in rainfall, which are amplified by high run-off production and evaporation rates. Current modelling scenarios suggest that there will be significant climate change1 impacts in South Africa (Hewitson et al. 2005). Climate change is expected to alter the present hydrological resources in southern Africa and add pressure on the adaptability of future water resources (Schulze & Perks 2000) . During the past 20 years, most of Africa has experienced extensive droughts, the last three being 1986-88, 1991-92 and 1997-98 (after Chenje & Johnson 1996).
