  • 7. Water Quality
    Western Cape IWRM Action Plan: Status Quo Report Final Draft 7. WATER QUALITY 7.1 INTRODUCTION 7.1.1 What is water quality? “Water quality” is a term used to express the suitability of water to sustain various uses, such as agricultural, domestic, recreational, and industrial, or aquatic ecosystem processes. A particular use or process will have certain requirements for the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of water; for example limits on the concentrations of toxic substances for drinking water use, or restrictions on temperature and pH ranges for water supporting invertebrate communities. Consequently, water quality can be defined by a range of variables which limit water use by comparing the physical and chemical characteristics of a water sample with water quality guidelines or standards. Although many uses have some common requirements for certain variables, each use will have its own demands and influences on water quality. Water quality is neither a static condition of a system, nor can it be defined by the measurement of only one parameter. Rather, it is variable in both time and space and requires routine monitoring to detect spatial patterns and changes over time. The composition of surface and groundwater is dependent on natural factors (geological, topographical, meteorological, hydrological, and biological) in the drainage basin and varies with seasonal differences in runoff volumes, weather conditions, and water levels. Large natural variations in water quality may, therefore, be observed even where only a single water resource is involved. Human intervention also has significant effects on water quality. Some of these effects are the result of hydrological changes, such as the building of dams, draining of wetlands, and diversion of flow.

  • Palmiet Prionium Serratum, a Cape River Plant
    River plant Palmiet Prionium serratum, a Cape river plant by Charlie Boucher and Melanie Withers, Botany Department, University of 5tellenbosch LEFT: During a fire, the thicker stems of Prionium serratum are not killed and recover rapidly, and side shoots develop prolifically after the plants are burnt. Sparrrnan's early description of this plant is very apt: 'a kind of acorus with a .. thick stem and broad leaves, which grow out from the top, as they do in a palm­ tree, a circumstance from which the plant takes its name.' (Acorus calamus is a . .- • .... reed-like Asian plant introduced into Europe as an herbal remedy.) Prionium ser­ ratum was so striking to the early European settlers at the Cape that even Van .- Riebeeck made reference to it, giving it the common name 'wilde palmit' for the first •• .. time in the literature. One of the larger rivers in the Western Cape, the Palmiet River, which flows through the Elgin Basin, is named after this plant that grows in abundance in it. More recently the status of this plant has been raised as taxonomists have removed it from the Juncaceae (rush family) to a family of its own with only one .. species in it, aptly called the Prioniaceae. This robust shrub (or is it a herb or a short tree?) has stems growing up to 2 m tall. The 'stems' are actually branching, aerial woody rhizomes (as in an iris' root­ stock). The remains of old leaves enclose the stems and serve to protect the plants from damage during floods when boulders and stones move down the rivers and ..--.

  • The Riparian Vegetation of the Hottentots Holland Mountains, SW Cape
    The riparian vegetation of the Hottentots Holland Mountains, SW Cape By E.J.J. Sieben Dissertation presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Stellenbosch Promoter: Dr. C. Boucher December 2000 Declaration I the undersigned, hereby declare that the work in this dissertation is my own original work and has not previously, in its entirety or in part, been submitted at any University for a degree. Signature Date Aan mijn ouders i Summary Riparian vegetation has received a lot of attention in South Africa recently, mainly because of its importance in bank stabilization and its influence on flood regimes and water conservation. The upper reaches have thus far received the least of this attention because of their inaccessibility. This study mainly focuses on these reaches where riparian vegetation is still mostly in a pristine state. The study area chosen for this purpose is the Hottentots Holland Mountains in the Southwestern Cape, the area with the highest rainfall in the Cape Floristic Region, which is very rich in species. Five rivers originate in this area and the vegetation described around them covers a large range of habitats, from high to low altitude, with different geological substrates and different rainfall regimes. All of these rivers are heavily disturbed in their lower reaches but are still relatively pristine in their upper reaches. All of them are dammed in at least one place, except for the Lourens River. An Interbasin Transfer Scheme connects the Eerste-, Berg- and Riviersonderend Rivers. The water of this scheme is stored mainly in Theewaterskloof Dam.

I see my grandmother sitting in her chair, grey hair escaping from under a white cotton scarf wrapped around her head; her fingers hold the thin steel hook wrapping cotton thread in elaborate patterns, making poor man’s lace, creating circles in the air to catch bad dreams. Her hands are never idle, weaving and spinning a livelihood to keep her family together, her work good enough for even white people, my father says, the patterns out of a secret book in her head dipped in starch and ironed to attention.
