  • Aspects of the E Gi Eeri G Geology of Maputo City
    ASPECTS OF THE EGIEERIG GEOLOGY OF MAPUTO CITY, MOZAMBIQUE By EOQUE MEDES VICETE Submitted in fulfilment of the academic requirements for the Doctoral degree (PhD) in the School of Geological Sciences University of KwaZulu-Natal Durban MARCH 2011 ABSTRACT The geological formations of Maputo City, which are mainly unconsolidated materials with soil like properties, are described in terms of their engineering geological and geotechnical characteristics with relevance to their distribution patterns and spatial trends. Problematic conditions such as collapse potential characteristics, loose aeolian sand dune deposits and loose sand plains characterize many of the materials. The geological characteristics combined with anthropogenic interference such as intensive urbanization with inappropriate land use, construction in sensitive areas like steep sandy slopes has led to many problems including slope stability. Foundation problems with building settlement and gully erosion also occur. The aim of this research was to study the engineering geological characteristics and the geotechnical properties of the geological formations of Maputo City and various related problems. Special relevance has been given to the understanding of three specific problems: building damage, gully erosion and slope instability. The geological formations are predominantly sandy (coarse to very fine sand) with very low clay content, are non-plastic and are classified as from the group SP-SM which are poorly- graded sand with silt. The majority of the materials are loose and normally consolidated with a high level of residual strength. Assessment of collapse settlement through double consolidation technique indicated soil compressibility and significant sensibility to collapse upon wetting. Truly collapsible soils that show full collapse of the soil structure were identified in 33% of the tested materials where the highest collapse behaviour reached values above 5%, predicted to cause moderate trouble in foundation design.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT The Swazi kingdom grew out of the pressures associated with competition for trade and for the rich resources of Shiselweni. While centred on this area it acquired some of its characteristic features - notably a regimental system, and the dominance of a Dlamini aristocracy. Around 1815 the Swazi came under pressure from the South, and were forced to colonise the land lying north of the Lusutfu. Here they remained for some years a nation under arms, as they plundered local peoples, and were themselves swept about by the currents of the Mfecane. In time a more settled administration emerged, as the aristocracy spread out from the royal centres at Ezulwini, and this process accelerated under Mswati as he subdued recalcitrant chiefdoms, and restructured the regiments.

  • Application of Numerical Models to Assess Multi-Source Saltwater Intrusion Under Natural and Pumping Conditions in the Great Maputo Aquifer, Mozambique
    Hydrogeology Journal (2019) 27:2973–2992 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10040-019-02053-5 REPORT Application of numerical models to assess multi-source saltwater intrusion under natural and pumping conditions in the Great Maputo aquifer, Mozambique Alberto Casillas-Trasvina1 & Yangxiao Zhou1,2 & Tibor Y. Stigter1 & F. E. F. Mussáa3 & D. Juízo2 Received: 25 February 2019 /Accepted: 26 September 2019/Published online: 13 November 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Regional three-dimensional groundwater-flow and saltwater transport models were built to analyse saltwater intrusion in the Great Maputo area, southern Mozambique. Increased water demand has led to many private groundwater abstractions, as the local public water supply network has already reached maximum capacity. Pushing for new strategies to tackle the water-supply shortages exposes the aquifer system to saltwater intrusion from entrapped fossil saline groundwater and seawater. Previous attempts at modelling have been frustrated by data limitations. This study compiled all the available data to build the models, which were subsequently calibrated with observed heads, discharges and salt concentrations. The transport models were used to test hypotheses of potential sources of saltwater resulting in the current salinity distribution. Furthermore, scenarios were simulated to assess the impacts of sea-level rise and projected groundwater abstractions. Results show that saline groundwater is widely distributed in the aquifer’s western sector, where it is a limiting factor for groundwater development, and seawater intrusion is a risk along the coastline. Newly constructed wells (46) along the Infulene River can be operated with some impacts of saltwater upconing and must be closely monitored. Although current groundwater abstractions (60,340 m3/day) are still small compared with groundwater recharge (980,823 m3/day), larger volumes of abstraction are feasible only when using a high number of production wells further away from the city with relatively low yields to avoid saltwater upconing.

Tanja Katharina Sellick Bachelor thesis, 15 credits, in Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science Supervisor Petter Pilesjö Exam committee: Andreas Persson Abdulghani Hasan iii Abstract: Flooding is a frequent natural hazard globally that is capable of major damage to society. The hazard is especially prevalent in Mozambique, in which many flood events with negative effects have occurred. Disaster risk management and research is therefore important in the country. However, as a developing country, it is subject to data scarcity. Matola is one of the most populous cities in Mozambique, and is located between two rivers (the Matola and Infulene) and the coastline of Maputo bay. Precipitation events frequently result in pluvial flooding in the city.

  • Meretrix Meretrix As an Indicator of Heavy Metal Contamination in Maputo Bay
    Meretrix meretrix as an Indicator of Heavy Metal Contamination in Maputo Bay Jon Böhlmark Arbetsgruppen för Tropisk Ekologi Minor Field Study 93 Committee of Tropical Ecology Uppsala University, Sweden May 2003 Uppsala Meretrix meretrix as an Indicator of Heavy Metal Contamination in Maputo Bay Jon Böhlmark A Theses Work at Uppsala University School of Engineering Program for Aquatic and Environmental Engineering 2003 Department of Earth Sciences, Uppsala University, Sweden Abstract Heavy metal contamination is sometimes described as a ticking environmental bomb. The east African region has a rapid population growth and anthropogenic influence is believed to increase, probably leading to higher loads into the biosphere of heavy metals. The object of this study is to map today’s levels of Cd, Cu, Pb, Cr, Fe, Al, and a few more trace metals around Maputo city. Matola River runs through industrial areas and discharges into Maputo Bay. Bivalve Meretrix meretrix populates both sides of the river and along the Costa do Sol, north of the city. Filter feeders like Meretrix accumulate heavy metal and are therefore good indicators of contamination. 60 clams were collected and analysed for heavy metals, giving a picture of today’s levels of contamination. Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry /Atomic Emission Spectrometry instruments were used for the chemical analysis and Principal Component statistical analysis was performed showing elevated levels of Pb and Cu in Matola and elevated levels of Cr and Fe at Villa do Pescadores, a fisherman’s
