Langley-Brady 2018 South Africa A Brief History and Statistics © Dawn L. Langley-Brady 2018 A Brief History – Fossils link modern homo sapiens living in South Africa almost 200,000 years ago. – First peoples consisted of San, Khoikhoi, and Bantu-speaking tribes from Africa. – In 1652, a permanent European colony was established in Cape Town to support sailors from the Netherlands and the Dutch East India Company. – In 1815, most of South Africa was annexed by the British and fell under their rule. – In 1961, this country officially became the sovereign state – The Republic of South Africa (RSA). – Apartheid was established in 1948 and abolished between 1991 and 1994. – The RSA is a democracy with three branches of government each located in a separate capital. – South Africa has 11 official languages and is considered culturally and ethnically diverse. © Dawn L. Langley-Brady 2018 Nelson Mandela’s Cell Robben Island, South Africa Cape Town, South Africa As viewed from Robben Island where Apartheid opposition were held as prisoners. South African Statistics – South Africa has a population of approximately 56 million. – South African education system ranks 75th out of the top 76 countries. – Approximately 26% of South African adults are HIV positive. – Approximately 47% of South Africans live in poverty. – Approximately 78% of South African land is owned by the wealthy 8%. – In 2016, 29% of the population was 14 years of age or younger. – South Africa leads the world in the most inequality between races and rural and urban youth. – On July 9th, the United States dollar was equal to 13.42 South African Rand. © Dawn L. Langley-Brady 2018 Shanty Towns These poverty and crime ridden communities are prevalent on the outskirts of Cape Town. Thousands of families live in tiny metal shacks with no electricity or running water. South African Geology An Overview © Dawn L. Langley-Brady 2018 South African Geology – This region boasts desert, semi-desert, coastal and mountainous regions, a Mediterranean climate, and is a region dependent upon mostly winter or summer rainfall. – South African temperatures average 17°C (63°F) in spring and fall, 22°C (72°F) in the summer, and 8°C (46°F) in the winter. – Winds on the Western Cape can be strong, but average 7 m/s (16 mph) during most of the year, and the average annual rainfall is 450 mm (18 inches). © Dawn L. Langley-Brady 2018 Cape Town, South Africa For most foreigners, the mention of South Africa brings to mind the seaside city of Cape Town or the busy dry streets of the country’s capital – Johannesburg. © Dawn L.

  • The Impact of Land Use on Invertebrate Assemblages in the Succulent Karoo, South Africa
    The impact of land use on invertebrate assemblages in the Succulent Karoo, South Africa. By ‘Makebitsamang Constance Nchai Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Conservation Ecology) at the University of Stellenbosch. Supervisor: Dr. Cornelia B. Krug Co-supervisor: Prof. M. J. Samways December 2008 Abstract The Succulent Karoo biodiversity hotspot is threatened by pressure caused by increasing human populations and its associated land use types. Land use is primarily focussed on agriculture, with livestock grazing as a dominant land use in the region. Cultivation is also practiced along the major perennial rivers, and in drier areas, where this largely depends on rainfall. Only about seven percent of the biome is formally protected, and this area substantially under-represents the biodiversity of the Succulent Karoo and does not incorporate key ecological processes and biodiversity drivers. Therefore, there is urgent need for outside reserve conservation initiatives, whose success depend on understanding the ecosystem function of the Succulent Karoo. This study aimed to determine the impacts of heavy grazing, light grazing and cultivation (in a 30-year old fallow field) on assemblages of ground-dwelling and flying invertebrates. Seasonal assemblage changes were also determined. Vegetation structure and composition were determined using the line-intercept method to determine if vegetation patterns explain patterns in invertebrate assemblages. Abandoned fields harbour the lowest number of plant species, and these together with the heavily grazed sizes are dominated by a high cover of Galenia africana (Aizoaceae). Lightly grazed sites have the highest structural complexity, with a high cover of succulents and non-succulent perennials.

(ASTERACEAE) Elizabeth Wanjiku Njenga A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree Of Doctor of Philosophy Johannesburg, 2005. i DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own work. It is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted for any degree or examination at any other university. The abstracts and copies of paper(s) included are part of this work. Signature Date ii DEDICATION To Joy, Shalom and George, my lifetime friends, for their love, courage, strength and prayers that inspired me to face all the challenges… iii ABSTRACT The genus Eriocephalus commonly known as ‘wild rosemary’, ‘Cape snow bush’, or ‘kapokbos’ is a member of the family Asteraceae (tribe Anthemideae). The genus is endemic to southern Africa, with the highest concentration of species in the Western and Northern Cape. The genus comprises 32 species and a total of 42 taxa, which are distributed in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, and Lesotho. The characters used in species delimitation are purely based on morphological variation in floral and foliar parts and are highly homoplastic due to phenotypic plasticity. In many cases these features are not sufficiently distinctive, as some taxa tend to exhibit dimorphism in some character states such as the presence of opposite and alternate leaves. In some species there is extensive intergrading of the major diagnostic characters leading to uncertainty in species delimitation.

SALKINI AND STEVEN L. PETERSEN† International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Aleppo, Syria †Plant and Animal Sciences Department, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA 1Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Rangeland degradation has been widespread and severe throughout the Syrian steppe as a result of both unfavorable environmental conditions and human induced impacts. To explore the effectiveness of management-based strategies on establishing sustainable rangeland development, we compared the response of temporarily removing grazing from rangelands ecosystems to those under a continuous heavy grazing regime. Results indicated that ungrazed sites had both higher biomass production and plant species composition than grazed sites. Ungrazed plots produced more than fourfold herbaceous biomass production than continuously grazed plots (p < 0.001). Extent of plant cover was 20% greater in ungrazed plots than grazed plots (33.5 & 13.5%, respectively). Furthermore areas protected from heavy grazing had over 200% greater species composition. Thus, protection from grazing can increase forage production and species composition, but may not necessarily improve plant species available for livestock utilization. A more balanced grazing management approach is recommended to achieve an optimal condition of biomass production (quantity), vegetation cover, quality and available forage species that contribute to proving livestock grazing conditions. Key Words: Vegetation sampling; Overgrazing; Species diversity; Semiarid; Steppe INTRODUCTION population.

Muell. ex Benth., E. astringens Essential oils Maiden and E. sideroxylon A.Cunn. ex Schauer-. These species were collected from six arboreta of 1,8-cineole Tunisia in January 2008. The essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation method and estimated the essential oil yield which varies from 1.5±0.1% to 4.0±0.2%. Results of the study revealed that yield of ACP essential oil are not only depends on the Eucalyptus species but also depends on the origin of harvest.
