Analysis of land cover land use change in the greater Gaborone area of South Eastern Botswana
(Ecological Society of China, 2023)Changes in land cover land use (LCLU) have long been considered to be among the many factors responsible for global environmental challenges. This study focused on assessing LCLU changes in the Greater Gaborone area of ... -
Non-seasonal Landsat based bare area gain detection in Botswana during 2002 to 2020 Period using Maximum Likelihood Classifier (MLC).
(South African Journal of Geomatics, 2022-09-04)This paper estimates bare area gain detected using cloud free Landsat 7 (ETM+) and Landsat 8 (OLI) in Botswana. From 2002 to 2020, agricultural fields shrunk by 76.4%, while built-up increased by 49.2%, and bare areas ... -
Rainfall reliability, drought and flood vulnerability in Botswana
(Water SA, 2004-08-04)Rainfall data from 14 stations (cities, towns and major villages) spanning 26 years (1970 to 1995) were used to calculate reliability and vulnerability of rainfall in Botswana. Time series data for 72 years were generated ... -
Sorghum yield and associated satellite-derived meteorological parameters in semi-arid Botswana
(African Crop Science Journal, 2015-03-15)Africa has sparse meteorological stations, hence it is increasingly common to use satellite-derived meteorological parameters, where in-situ measuremnts are not available. The objective of this study was to determine if ... -
Spatial and temporal variation of soil properties and soil organic carbon in semi-arid areas of Sub-Sahara Africa
(Elservier, 2024-03)Land cover land use (LCLU) patterns play a crucial role in shaping the biosphere and global climate. This influence is especially pronounced in arid and semi-arid regions, where environmental vulnerabilities are heightened. ...
