  • Nyasa Clandestine Migration Through Southern Rhodesia Into the Union of South Africa: 1920S – 1950S
    Settling in Motion: Nyasa Clandestine Migration through Southern Rhodesia into the Union of South Africa: 1920s – 1950s Anusa Daimon Centre for Africa Studies University of the Free State Bloemfontein, South Africa Abstract Illegal African migration into South Africa is not uniquely a post-apartheid phenomenon. It has its antecedents in the colonial/apartheid period. The South Africa colonial economy relied heavily on cheap African labour from both within and outside the Union. Most foreign migrant labourers came from the then Nyasaland (Malawi) and Portuguese East Africa (Mozambique) through official channels of the Witwatersrand Native Labour Association (WNLA). WNLA was active throughout the Southern Africa and competed for the same labour resource with other regional supranational ‘native’ labour recruitment agencies, providing various incentives to lure and transport potential employees to its bustling South African gold and diamond mining industry. However, not all migrant labourers found their way through formal WNLA channels. Using archival material from repositories in Harare (Zimbabwe), Zomba (Malawi), Grahamstown (South Africa), London and Oxford (UK), the article casts light on illicit migration mainly by Malawian labourers (Nyasas) through Southern Rhodesia into South Africa between the 1920s and 1950s. It argues that many transient Nyasas subverted the inhibitive WNLA contractual obligations by clandestinely migrating independently into the Union. They also exploited the labour recruitment infrastructure used by the state and labour bureaus to swiftly move across Southern Rhodesia. In essence, Nyasas settled in motion, using Southern Rhodesia as a stepping-stone or springboard en-route to the more lucrative Union of South Africa. An appreciation of such informal migration opens up space for creating a more comprehensive historiography of labour migration in Southern Africa.

  • Alluvial Aquifers in the Mzingwane Catchment: Their Distribution, Properties, Current Usage and Potential Expansion
    Physics and Chemistry of the Earth 31 (2006) 988–994 www.elsevier.com/locate/pce Alluvial aquifers in the Mzingwane catchment: Their distribution, properties, current usage and potential expansion William Moyce a,*, Pride Mangeya a, Richard Owen a,d, David Love b,c a Department of Geology, University of Zimbabwe, P.O. Box MP167, Mt. Pleasant, Harare, Zimbabwe b WaterNet, P.O. Box MP600, Mt. Pleasant, Harare, Zimbabwe c ICRISAT Bulawayo, Matopos Research Station, P.O. Box 776, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe d Minerals Resources Centre, University of Zimbabwe, P.O. Box MP167, Mt. Pleasant, Harare, Zimbabwe Abstract The Mzingwane River is a sand filled channel, with extensive alluvial aquifers distributed along its banks and bed in the lower catch- ment. LandSat TM imagery was used to identify alluvial deposits for potential groundwater resources for irrigation development. On the false colour composite band 3, band 4 and band 5 (FCC 345) the alluvial deposits stand out as white and dense actively growing veg- etation stands out as green making it possible to mark out the lateral extent of the saturated alluvial plain deposits using the riverine fringe and vegetation . The alluvial aquifers form ribbon shaped aquifers extending along the channel and reaching over 20 km in length in some localities and are enhanced at lithological boundaries. These alluvial aquifers extend laterally outside the active channel, and individual alluvial aquifers have been measured with area ranging from 45 ha to 723 ha in the channels and 75 ha to 2196 ha on the plains. The alluvial aquifers are more pronounced in the Lower Mzingwane, where the slopes are gentler and allow for more sediment accumulation.

  • Changing Hydroclimatic and Discharge Patterns in the Northern Limpopo Basin, Zimbabwe
    Changing hydroclimatic and discharge patterns in the northern Limpopo Basin, Zimbabwe David Love1, 2*, Stefan Uhlenbrook3,4, Steve Twomlow2 and Pieter van der Zaag3,4 1WaterNet, PO Box MP600, Mount Pleasant, Harare, Zimbabwe 2 ICRISAT Bulawayo, Matopos Research Station, PO Box 776 Bulawayo, Zimbabwe 3 UNESCO-IHE, Westvest 7, PO Box 3015, 2601 DA Delft, The Netherlands 4 Department of Water Resources, Delft University of Technology, PO Box 5048, 2600 GA Delft, The Netherlands Abstract Changing regional and global trends in climate and discharge, such as global warming-related declines in annual rainfall in south-eastern Africa, are likely to have a strong influence on water resource availability, and to increase livelihood risk. It is therefore important to characterise such trends. Information can be obtained by examining and comparing the rainfall and runoff records at different locations within a basin. In this study, trends in various parameters of temperature (4 stations), rainfall (10 stations) and discharge (16 stations) from the northern part of the Limpopo Basin, Zimbabwe, were statistically analysed, using the Spearman rank test, the Mann-Kendall test and the Pettitt test. It was determined that rainfall and dis- charge in the study area have undergone a notable decline since 1980, both in terms of total annual water resources (declines in annual rainfall, annual unit runoff) and in terms of the temporal availability of water (declines in number of rainy days, increases in dry spells, increases in days without flow). Annual rainfall is negatively correlated to an index of the El Niño – Southern Oscillation phenomenon. The main areas of rising risk are an increasing number of dry spells, which is likely to decrease crop yields, and an increasing probability of annual discharge below the long-term average, which could limit blue-water availability.

  • Synopsis and Case Studies
    AN EVALUATION OF CLIMATE AND RUNOFF VARIABILITY AND ASSOCIATED LIVELIHOOD RISKS IN THE MZINGWANE CATCHMENT, LIMPOPO BASIN, ZIMBABWE# David Love1,2*,Stefan Uhlenbrook3, Elisha Madamombe4, Steve Twomlow2 and Pieter van der Zaag3 1 WaterNet, PO Box MP600, Mount Pleasant, Harare, Zimbabwe 2 ICRISAT Bulawayo, Matopos Research Station, PO Box 776 Bulawayo, Zimbabwe 3 UNESCO-IHE, Westvest 7, PO Box 3015, 2601 DA Delft, The Netherlands 4 Research and Data Department, Zimbabwe National Water Authority, Harare, Zimbabwe ABSTRACT Climate change occurs over relatively long time scales, although some acceleration in changes can also be seen in data of the last twenty years. The reasons for the current changes in the climatological variables might be anthropogenic (e.g. greenhouse gas emission) or natural (e.g. solar variability etc.), or most likely a combination of both reasons. An increasing body of evidence shows that greenhouse gas emissions are changing our climate significantly. Climate change is projected to substantially reduce available water (as reflected by projected runoff from a catchment) in many of the water- scarce areas of the world A statistical analysis was carried out of over fifty years of precipitation, temperature and runoff data from several locations in the Mzingwane Catchment – the portion of the Limpopo Basin that falls within Zimbabwe. The trends show declines in precipitation and runoff and increases in maximum and minimum temperatures, across the catchment. The trends observed are comparable to those predicted from some of the global circulation models (GCMs) based on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Special Report on Emission Scenarios (IPCC (SRES)). Regression analyses show the relationships between climate variability and change and decreasing runoff.
