Fuls, G.J. Bredenkamp and N. van Rooyen Department of Botany, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, 0002 Republic of South Africa Received 23 October 1991; revised 31 March 1992 An analysis of the plant communities of the watercourses of the Vredefort - Kroonstad - Lindley - Heilbron area (northern Orange Free State) is presented. Releves were compiled in 34 stratified random sample plots. A TWINSPAN classification, refined by Braun-Blanquet procedures, revealed four distinct plant communities. A hierarchical classification, description and ecological interpretation of the plant communities are presented. 'n Analise van die plantgemeenskappe van die waterbane van die Vredefort - Kroonstad - Lindley - Heilbron area (noordelike Oranje-Vrystaat) word gegee. Releves is in 34 gestratifiseerde ewekansig gekose monsterpersele saamgestel. 'n TWINSPAN-klassifikasie, verfyn deur Braun-Blanquet-prosedures, toon vier duidelik onderskeibare plantgemeenskappe. 'n Hierargiese klassifikasie, beskrywing en ekologiese interpretasie van hierdie plantgemeenskappeword aangebied. Keywords: Braun-Blanquet classification, grassland biome, synecology, TWINSPAN Introduction Kroonstad map (1:250 (00) (Land Type Survey Staff 1984), The northern part of the Orange Free State is one of the within the climatic climax grassland biome of southern most important agricultural regions of southern Africa, both Africa (Mentis & Huntley 1982). The area is situated in terms of intensive crop production and extensive stock between 27°11' and 28°lO'E longitude and 2rOO' and farming (Scheepers 1975; Mentis & Huntley 1982). The 28°00'S latitude (Figure 1). Towns situated in, or widespread ploughing of arable land concomitant with bordering on, the study area are Kroonstad, Heilbron, livestock grazing pressure resulted in the destruction of large portions of pristine vegetation in the area. The sensitivity of hydrophilic vegetation makes the watercourses especially vulnerable to degradation. Increased run-off and 27', 27~30'E 28"E 270$ -+-------='"77777777:7'7":''777777:7"!""'-'---,-27'S erosion, liberal use of fertilizer and pesticides within catchment areas, as well as indiscriminate utilization by livestock, are but a few aspects which contribute to water­ course degradation in the area. Since the broad vegetation classification and mapping presented by Acocks in 1953 (Acocks 1953, 1988), very little advance has been made towards a more detailed classi­ fication and description of the vegetation of the area. In 27'l30'S 2]030'$ view of the predicament of the natural vegetation of the study area, it is imperative that future land-use planning, management and conservation strategies are based on sound plant ecological principles. To facilitate optimal resource utilization in general, and to assess the conservation status of the vegetation in particular, a detailed identification, classification and mapping of the vegetation of the region 28CS has been undertaken.

  • Irongate House, Houndsditch EC3 Ruth Siddall Irongate
    Urban Geology in London No. 24 Meteorite Impactites in London: Irongate House, Houndsditch EC3 Ruth Siddall Irongate House (below) was designed by architects Fitzroy, Robinson & Partners and completed in 1978. It is a building that is quite easy to ignore. Situated at the Aldgate end of Houndsditch in the City of London, this is a now rather dated, 1970s office block surrounded, and arguably encroached upon by the sparkling glass slabs and cylinders of new modern blocks nicknamed the ‘Gherkin’ and the ‘Cheesegrater’. Walking past, at pavement level, it could indeed be dismissed as the entrance to an underground car park. But look up! Irongate House is a geological gem with a unique and spectacular decorative stone used for cladding the façade. Eric Robinson corresponded with the architects during the building of Irongate House, whilst he was compiling his urban geological walk from the Royal Exchange to Aldgate (Robinson, 1982) and the second volume of the London: Illustrated Geological Walks (Robinson, 1985). Eric discovered that Fitzroy, Robinson & Partners’ stone contractors had chosen a most exotic, unusual and unexpected rock, newly available on the market. This is an orthogneiss from South Africa called the Parys Gneiss. What makes this rock more interesting is that the town of Parys, where the quarries are located, is positioned close to the centre of a major meteorite impact crater, the Vredefort Dome, and the effects of this event, melts associated with the impact called pseudotachylites, cross-cut the gneiss and can be observed here in the City of London. Both to mine and Eric’s knowledge, Parys Gneiss is used here uniquely in the UK, and as such it also made it into Ashurst & Dimes (1998)’s review of building stones.

    Meteoritics & Planetary Science 40, Nr 9/10, 1537–1554 (2005) Abstract available online at http://meteoritics.org Structural analysis of the collar of the Vredefort Dome, South Africa— Significance for impact-related deformation and central uplift formation Frank WIELAND, Roger L. GIBSON*, and Wolf Uwe REIMOLD Impact Cratering Research Group, School of Geosciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Private Bag 3, P.O. Wits 2050, Johannesburg, South Africa *Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] (Received 25 October 2004; revision accepted 13 July 2005) Abstract–Landsat TM, aerial photograph image analysis, and field mapping of Witwatersrand supergroup meta-sedimentary strata in the collar of the Vredefort Dome reveals a highly heterogeneous internal structure involving folds, faults, fractures, and melt breccias that are interpreted as the product of shock deformation and central uplift formation during the 2.02 Ga Vredefort impact event. Broadly radially oriented symmetric and asymmetric folds with wavelengths ranging from tens of meters to kilometers and conjugate radial to oblique faults with strike-slip displacements of, typically, tens to hundreds of meters accommodated tangential shortening of the collar of the dome that decreased from ∼17% at a radius from the dome center of 21 km to <5% at a radius of 29 km. Ubiquitous shear fractures containing pseudotachylitic breccia, particularly in the metapelitic units, display local slip senses consistent with either tangential shortening or tangential extension; however, it is uncertain whether they formed at the same time as the larger faults or earlier, during the shock pulse. In addition to shatter cones, quartzite units show two fracture types—a cm- spaced rhomboidal to orthogonal type that may be the product of shock-induced deformation and later joints accomplishing tangential and radial extension.

The directory is divided into three main parts. The first part, which is the background, is introductory comments by President Nelson Mandela and other officials. The second part consists of three directory sections, namely South African youth and children's organizations, South African educational institutions, including technical training colleges, technikons and universities, and South African and international youth organizations. The section on South African youth and children's organizations, the largest section, consists of 44 sectoral chapters, with each organization listed in a sectoral chapter representing its primary activity focus. Each organization is at the same time also cross-referenced with other relevant sectoral chapters, indicated by keywords at the bottom of an entry.
