  • A Brief History of Wine in South Africa Stefan K
    European Review - Fall 2014 (in press) A brief history of wine in South Africa Stefan K. Estreicher Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX 79409-1051, USA Vitis vinifera was first planted in South Africa by the Dutchman Jan van Riebeeck in 1655. The first wine farms, in which the French Huguenots participated – were land grants given by another Dutchman, Simon Van der Stel. He also established (for himself) the Constantia estate. The Constantia wine later became one of the most celebrated wines in the world. The decline of the South African wine industry in the late 1800’s was caused by the combination of natural disasters (mildew, phylloxera) and the consequences of wars and political events in Europe. Despite the reorganization imposed by the KWV cooperative, recovery was slow because of the embargo against the Apartheid regime. Since the 1990s, a large number of new wineries – often, small family operations – have been created. South African wines are now available in many markets. Some of these wines can compete with the best in the world. Stefan K. Estreicher received his PhD in Physics from the University of Zürich. He is currently Paul Whitfield Horn Professor in the Physics Department at Texas Tech University. His biography can be found at http://jupiter.phys.ttu.edu/stefanke. One of his hobbies is the history of wine. He published ‘A Brief History of Wine in Spain’ (European Review 21 (2), 209-239, 2013) and ‘Wine, from Neolithic Times to the 21st Century’ (Algora, New York, 2006). The earliest evidence of wine on the African continent comes from Abydos in Southern Egypt.

  • Breede River Basin Study. Groundwater Assessment
    DEPARTMENT OF WATER AFFAIRS AND FORESTRY BREEDE RIVER BASIN STUDY GROUNDWATER ASSESSMENT Final MAY 2003 Groundwater Consulting Services P O Box 2597 Rivonia 2128 Tel : +27 11 803 5726 Fax : +27 11 803 5745 e-mail : [email protected] This report is to be referred to in bibliographies as : Department of Water Affairs and Forestry, South Africa. 2003. Groundwater Assessment. Prepared by G Papini of Groundwater Consulting Services as part of the Breede River Basin Study. DWAF Report No. PH 00/00/2502. BREEDE RIVER BASIN STUDY GROUNDWATER ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The objectives of this study were to assess the significance and distribution of groundwater resources in the Breede River catchment, estimate the amount of abstraction and degree of stress it may be causing and to indicate the scope for further development of groundwater resources. This was achieved by a review of all available literature and obtaining yields and quantities from all significant schemes. The characterisation of important aquifers and assessment of the groundwater balance (recharge versus consumption) allowed for identification of further groundwater potential. The geohydrology of the Breede River catchment is controlled by the occurrence of the rocks of the Table Mountain Group (which form the mountainous areas), the occurrence of high levels of faulting and folding in the syntaxis area of the upper catchment and the variable rainfall, being highest in the mountainous areas in the west. These factors result in a catchment with highest groundwater potential in the west, where recharge, yields and abstraction potential are greatest and the quality is the best. As a result of these factors, the western half of the catchment is also the area with the greatest groundwater use.

  • Robertson Corridor Leopard Project December 2012 Update
    Robertson Corridor Leopard Project December 2012 Update Dear All, I hope this update finds everyone well! The November field work trip was very busy and there is lots to report. This was the first camera check of the project’s 36 camera stations of Phase 2. During this trip, an additional 8 camera stations were installed and we’d like to thank Ismail Bhorat of Melozhori Game Reserve for his generous donation, which made these new stations possible. These 8 new Phase 2 “Part II” camera stations cover the mountains above Ashton, more of the McGregor valley and the mountains further east of McGregor toward Stormsvlei. We want to welcome these new Landowners to the project! Unfortunately, we must also report the theft of the two cameras from the Dassieshoek Nature Reserve station. While, Dassieshoek is a wonderful area for us to potentially find leopard, there are no immediate plans to return cameras to this location because of security concerns. Consequently, with the addition of the 8 stations and the loss of the Dassieshoek station, the project currently has a new total of 43 active stations across the region. Now on to some exciting leopard news! As you all know, one of the things we were curious about was whether the leopards were crossing the Breede River. We all suspected that they were, but now we have photographic proof! The big male and female photograhped together at the Rooiberg Mountain stations in early September have both been found on separate occasions at camera stations on the southern side of the river.
