The research explores ways and means to recouple communities and national parks to promote biodiversity. The relationships are characterized between Namibia’s community-based resource management program (CBNRM), conservancies, and protected areas system, with particular reference to the Ehi-rovipuka Conservancy and Etosha National Park in northern Namibia.

  • The Main Vegetation Types of Kaokoland, Northern Damaraland and a Description of Some Transects of Owambo, Etosha and North Western South West Africa
    THE MAIN VEGETATION TYPES OF KAOKOLAND, NORTHERN DAMARALAND AND A DESCRIPTION OF SOME TRANSECTS OF OWAMBO, ETOSHA AND NORTH WESTERN SOUTH WEST AFRICA Rui Ildegario de Sousa Correia June 1976 ~ € id Tdi MAIN VEGETATION TYPES OF KAOKOLAND, NORTHERN DAMARALAND AND A DESCRIPTION OF SOME TRANSECTS OF OWAMBO, ETOSHA AND NORTH WESTERN SOUT WEST AFRICA The general ecological conditions that influence the vege- tation types of the study area have already been described in a previous report. The main factor influencing vegetation here, is rainfall. Topography plays a very important paralel role related with an additional distribution of rainwater by the superficial drainage of hills and mountains to the neighbouring flats " and slopes. Concerning the soils, it appears that the physical structure is of more importance than the chemical composition, as this (the structure) determines the availability of water for root development. - Iu some specific instances the soil seems to have a marked effect on the vegetation such as the superficial calcareous layer in south-eastern Kaokoland. The influence of the watersheds is also well marked in deter- mining vegetation types, whether floristic or physiognomic. In addition both physiognomic features and floristic composi- tion have been used to determine the boundaries of the various vegetation types as described. Judicious use/..... ‘co Judicious use was also made of "indicator" species, whether by its occurence or by its absence. The following have been used-<« Baikeea plurijuga - Typical of red “alahari sands in the me~- dian and higher rainfall areas (300 - 700 mm/2),“- Spirostachys africane - Usually appears on the edge of pans (such as Owambo and Southern Angola) and along seasonal rockey c : or sandy dry water courses exept in the desert country courses.

I am also grateful to the Overseas Development Administration, the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, the Catholic Institute for International Relations and the Namibian Support Committee for their assistance in providing information. Thanks are especially due for the time and advice given by all those who read and commented on the drafts. In particular, I am grateful to Richard Moorsom who helped with both research and editing, and to Justin Ellis, Julio Faundez, Peter Katjavivi, Prudence Smith, Paul Spray and Brian Wood. This book reflects the collective experience of Oxfam's work in Namibia over the past twenty-two years and I have therefore relied on the active collaboration of Oxfam staff and trustees. Sue Coxhead deserves special thanks for her help with research and typing. Finally, without the special help with childcare given by Mandy Bristow, Caroline Lovick and Prudence Smith, the book would never have seen the light of day.

Eloff's expedition during September 1978, with the University of Pretoria, South Africa. Kaokoland is in the northwestern part of South West Africa/Namibia and covers an area of some 5½ million hectares (22,000 square miles) and at present is under the control of the South African Government and falls under the Minister of Plural Relations, Dr. C. Mulder. The most striking topographic feature of the region is the many mountains, from the dolomite hills in the south to the stark ridges and isolated eminences rising from the highland plains and to the towering peaks of the Northern Baynes and Otjihipa ranges.

  • Discover Kaokoland Namibia Safari
    Discover Kaokoland This guided safari offers you the perfect opportunity to experience Namibia's unspoilt North West. Away from the bustle of the normal tourist routes, you will encounter Namibia’s famous desert adapted elephants, the nomadic Ovahimbas, and the mighty Kunene river and its spectacular Epupa waterfalls. The tour ends with a final relaxing overnight at Palmwag Lodge (or similar) before returning back to Swakopmund via Twyfelfontein and its famous rock engravings. Day 1: Swakopmund / Damaraland Depart Swakopmund and travel along the Atlantic Coast towards the North. Visit the lichen fields near Wlotzka's Baken before continuing to Henties Bay, a small holiday resort. From Henties Bay, travel onward to the seal colony at Cape Cross. After visiting the seals, the journey continues via Ugabmund to the southern Skeleton Coast Park to inspect a shipwreck. We leave the Skeleton Coast Park in the early afternoon via Springbokwasser, allowing guests to experience the harsh transition from the Namib Desert to the Damaraland highlands with its impressive landscape and rugged valleys. Here you might be able to sight the first springbok, zebra and oryx and, with some luck, the desert elephants. Overnight stay in bungalows at Grootberg Lodge or similar. After enjoying a drink and a delicious supper, guests can luxuriate in the Lodge's cosy atmosphere and let the day's impressions sink in. Your Financial Protection All monies paid by you for the air holiday package shown [or flights if appropriate] are ATOL protected by the Civil Aviation Authority. Our ATOL number is ATOL 3145.
