Abstract:
Abstract. This study examines the interface between groundwater hydrology and ecology, and addresses a scientific grand challenge to develop a comprehensive, systematic understanding of continental water dynamics by linking the hydrosphere and biosphere. There exists a current lack of data interoperability between groundwater modeling tools due to differences in numerical techniques – Analytic Element Method (AEM), Finite Difference Method (FDM), and Finite Element Method (FEM) – which lend themselves well to either vector or raster data, and legacy input/output file formats that are not well suited across models. Nonetheless, investigative computational tools are all founded in the same conceptualization of hydrologic properties associated with mass, flux, pathways and residence time. A consistent framework is developed using modern Geographic Information Science (GIScience) methods to organize and archive important information from international datasets and previous groundwater ecohydrology studies organized around aquifer and water point, line, polygon and raster features. Case studies illustrate the efficacy of this platform to address existing data interoperability issues for representative groundwater ecohydrology problems of global significance including the impact of human-induced forcings, change in species, and forcings by natural processes on groundwater ecohydrology. In North America, we study the relationships between groundwater pumping in the Ogallala Aquifer and changes in riparian habitat and phreatophyte species composition. In Europe, we study the impacts of changes in forest species composition on groundwater recharge and baseflow to biologically diverse fens and wetlands in the Veluwe sand hill region of The Netherlands. In Africa, we study the wetlands of the Okavango Delta in Botswana that forms an oasis in the midst of the Kalahari Desert and the role of groundwater in flushing salts from this freshwater ecosystem. In each study, we document the current state of knowledge, identify pertinent datasets and previous studies, develop new conceptual and computer models, and summarize findings. This computational platform provides a framework to study sustainability, to forecast the impacts of changes in forcings, and to provide a scientific underpinning that informs management and public policy debate.

Abstract:
In Botswana, tourism is the second most important economic activity after diamond mining and trading. The Okavango Delta in northern Botswana is the largest single tourist centre in the country. This study estimates the total economic value of tourism in the Okavango Delta and compares this value to that of other sectors in the economy of Botswana. The results are compared to results of similar studies for tourist destinations elsewhere in the world, and the policy implications of the findings are highlighted. The study uses secondary data to estimate the direct consumptive and non-consumptive use value, and a survey among tourists to determine the existence value of the Okavango Delta.

Abstract:
Le Delta de l'Okavango est un système endorhéique formant un cône alluvial dans la dépression du Kalahari. L'écosystème y est rythmé par une crue annuelle en provenance de l'Angola et entravée par l'escarpement des failles normales du graben de l'Okavango. Ce régime annuel est très variable, car la répartition de la crue annuelle diffère tous les ans. À plus grande échelle temporelle, du millénaire au Ma, l'endorhéisme du Delta peut varier entre des marais (actuel), un mega-lac ou perdre son caractère endorhéique (rivière). Les processus pouvant contrôler ces variations de régime sont 1) l'hydrologie du système, 2) l'activité des failles du graben, 3) l'apport sédimentaire et 4) l'écosystème. Cette étude apporte des contraintes quantifiées éclairant deux de ces processus à travers l'observation de la déformation de la surface terrestre par l'enregistrement de stations GPS permanentes. Le signal observé est annuellement impacté par la charge hydraulique résultant de la saison des pluies, et inter-annuellement par les variations de cette charge, ainsi que l'activité tectonique du graben. Les satellites GRACE fournissent un enregistrement quasi-continu de la variation du stock d'eau continentale, rendant possible la modélisation de la déformation élastique de la surface terrestre sous l'effet de cette charge. Le signal de déformation ainsi modélisé est comparable au signal saisonnier enregistré, validant les données satellitaires GRACE et révélant un important aquifère dans le bassin de l'Okavango. GRACE fournit ainsi un nouveau proxy permettant de suivre l'évolution de l'aquifère, et de valider le modèle hydrologique calibré précédemment pour le bassin. Les variations inter-annuelles d'eau souterraine dans le bassin validées par GRACE confirment le rôle de tampon des variations climatiques joué par l'aquifère sur la modulation des variations climatiques. La phase des variations du stock d'eau met de plus en évidence un effet de seuil dans la recharge de ce stock, en fonction de l'intensité des premières pluies. La faible résolution spatiale des variations du stock d'eau continental fournie par GRACE peut finalement être mieux contrainte par un examen plus détaillé des signaux GPS dans le bassin. Les vitesses de déformation horizontales de part et d'autre du graben révèlent une déformation tectonique faible sur l'ensemble du graben, de 1 mm/an exclusivement décrochante dextre. Une si faible déformation exclut une influence significative de l'activité tectonique et sismique du graben sur la variabilité de la distribution de la crue. Cette déformation observée remet en question le modèle géodynamique admis dans la région, soit une phase précoce de rifting liée à la propagation d'une branche SW du Rift Est-Africain. Un recensement des nombreuses études géophysiques réalisées dans la région dans la dernière décennie et un réexamen de la sismicité de l'Afrique australe n'amène aucune preuve significative de rifting dans le graben de l'Okavango. Un autre modèle géodynamique pour l'Afrique australe est proposé, basé sur l'accommodation lointaine de la déformation associée à l'ouverture à taux différentiels du Rift Est-Africain et le déplacement du craton du Kalahari par rapport au reste de la plaque nubienne
The Okavango Delta is an endorheic system forming an alluvial fan in the Kalahari depression. The local ecosystem is paced by the annual flood coming from the Angolan highlands, blocked downstream by the normal faults scarps of the Okavango graben. This annual regime is highly variable, with the spatial distribution of the flood differing every year. At the geological time scale, from millenary to mega-annual, the Delta's endorheism can also vary between wetlands (current regime), mega-lake or loose its endorhism to turn into a river. Processes driving these regime variations are 1) the hydrological system, 2) the faulting of the graben, 3) the sedimentary input and 4) the ecosystem. This study brings quantitative constraints regarding two of these processes through the deformation of the Earth's ground surface monitored by permanent GPS stations. The observed signal is impacted seasonally by the hydrological loading resulting from the rainy season, and inter-annually by the variations of the terrestrial water storage, as well as the tectonic activity of the graben. GRACE satellites provide a quasi-continuous record of the variations of the Earth's continental water storage, allowing the modelling of the elastic deformation imposed on the Earth's crust by loading. The resulting modelled deformation signal is well correlated to the observed seasonal signal, hence validating the GRACE data products and revealing a large aquifer in the Okavango basin. GRACE thus provides a new proxy to monitor the evolution of water storage, and to validate more robustly the hydrological model calibrated for the basin. The variations in terrestrial water storage (TWS) in the basin validated by GRACE confirm the buffer effect of the aquifer in the modulation of climatic variations. The phase of the TWS variations moreover highlights a threshold in the recharge of TWS during the rainy season, depending on the intensity of the first rains. Finally, the poor spatial resolution of TWS variations provided by GRACE can be further constrained by a detail examination of the GPS signals in the basin. Horizontal displacements rates across the graben reveal a low tectonic deformation rate, of 1 mm/yr, exclusively along a dextral strike-slip component. Such a low deformation rate excludes a significant influence of the graben faulting on the variability of the flood distribution. The observed deformation calls into question the current geodynamic model for the area, i.e. incipient rifitng due to the propagation of a southwestern branch of the East African Rift System. A review of the numerous geophysical studies in the study area over the last decade, as well as a re-examination of the seismic data in southern Africa does not provide significant evidence for rifting in the Okavango graben. An alternative geodynamic model is proposed, based on the far-field accommodation of the deformation resulting from the differential extension rates in the Rift Valley, and the displacement of the Kalahari craton relative to the Nubian plate

Abstract:
This thesis examines how global environmental crisis narratives and discourses have influenced environmental policy and practice in conservation programmes for the Okavango Delta, Botswana. In particular, it highlights the contested nature of biodiversity conservation and the embedded power relations in the framing, definition and crafting of solutions to the problem of biodiversity degradation at local, national and international levels. The thesis therefore examines, based on these framings, the consequences of global environmental agreements, such as the Ramsar Convention and the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, for local livelihoods in terms of access to and control over local environmental resources in the Okavango Delta. Using a political ecological conceptual lens and related literature on common pool resource management and community-based natural resource management, this thesis traces the changing perceptions, narratives and discourses relating to the Okavango Delta over time, and assesses how these have shaped changes in policy for the Delta's use and management. It specifically analyses the implementation of international programmes and their role in facilitating these changes. Through an in-depth study of dynamic human-environment interactions around fisheries and other wetland resources, this thesis shows how international interventions have not only increased conflicts but also facilitated the strict regulation of these resources. The thesis therefore analyses how framing these and other common pool resources as being of ‘international significance' alters control over them and affects the livelihood security of the local people that depend on these resources. It concludes that such restrictive conservation policies and management approaches have led to a transfer of control over wetland resources from local subsistence users to other, more powerful, commercial interests, especially those in the international tourism industry.

Abstract:
This thesis presents a first ever extensive analysis of pesticides in water and sediments from the Okavango Delta, Botswana, employing green sample preparation techniques that require small volumes of organic solvents hence generating negligible volumes of organic solvent waste. Pesticides were extracted and pre-concentrated from water by solid phase extraction (SPE) and headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) while supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and pressurized fluid extraction (PFE) were employed for sediments. Subsequent analysis was carried out on a gas chromatograph with electron capture detection and analytes were unequivocally confirmed by high resolution mass spectrometric detection. Hexachlorobenzene (HCB), trans-chlordane, 4,4′-DDD and 4,4′-DDE were detected after optimized HS-SPME in several water samples from the lower Delta at concentrations ranging from 2.4 to 61.4 μg L-1 that are much higher than the 0.1 μg L-1 maximum limit of individual organochlorine pesticides in drinking water set by the European Community Directive. The same samples were cleaned with ISOLUTE C18 SPE sorbent with an optimal acetone/n-hexane (1:1 v/v) mixture for the elution of analytes. No pesticides were detected after SPE clean-up and pre-concentration. HCB, aldrin and 4, 4‟-DDT were identified in sediments after SFE at concentration ranges of 1.1 - 30.3, 0.5 – 15.2 and 1.4 – 55.4 μg/g, respectively. There was an increase of pesticides concentrations in the direction of water flow from the Panhandle (point of entry) to the lower delta. DDE, fatty acids and phthalates were detected after PFE with optimized extraction solvent and temperature. The presence of DDT metabolites in the water and sediments from the Okavango Delta confirm historical exposure to the pesticide. However their cumulative concentration increase in the water-flow direction calls for further investigation of point sources for the long-term preservation of the Delta. The green sample preparation techniques and low toxicity solvents employed in this thesis are thus recommended for routine environmental monitoring exercises.

Abstract:
The general objective of this study was to gain a greater understanding of the complexities of the competition between people and elephants, focusing on elements that can be investigated in the short term and could aid in devising effective mitigation and management strategies. Specifically, I aimed to a) determine the current elephant population numbers and growth rate in the study area and investigate how reliable aerial survey estimates are; b) monitor the extent of human-elephant conflict (HEC) incidents and compare community based monitoring techniques to a top-down government approach; c) determine key drivers of elephant crop-raiding and explore how spatial autocorrelation affects such data; d) investigate how elephant movements are affected by human habitat modifications, and; e) investigate rural farmers' attitudes towards elephants and compare perceived human-elephant conflict to actual measurable levels of elephant crop damage. My findings show that combinations of social and ecological factors are involved in shaping competition between people and elephants. A multi-disciplinary approach to investigations is, therefore, needed to fully understand such competition and resulting conflicts. Contributory factors to HEC identified in this study include: actual and perceived conflict levels; farmer vulnerability to risk and available coping strategies; susceptibility of crops to elephant foraging, which affects both actual and perceived conflict levels; methods used to measure damage; natural and modified behaviour of people and elephants affecting resource and spatial use as well as how each species reacts to living in close proximity to each other; and human feelings and perception towards elephants and the situation, which are influenced by an array of socio-economic factors. To be successful, effective conflict resolution and management strategies will, therefore, require consideration of short and long term dynamics, as well as a combination of mitigation approaches that consider all elements affecting conflict extent.

Abstract:
This thesis presents an evaluation of the dispersive solid-phase extraction (d-SPE) method referred to as the quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe (QuEChERS) method for the determination of four organochlorine pesticide residues in fish samples. The pesticides investigated in this study were o, p′-DDT, p, p′-DDE, aldrin and dieldrin. The combined use of Gas Chromatography with an Electron Capture Detector (GC-ECD) and sensitive Time of Flight (TOF) mass detector facilitated the identification of the target analytes. In the absence of certified reference material, the overall analytical procedure was validated by systematic recovery experiments on spiked samples at three levels of 2, 5 and 10 ng/g. The targeted compounds were successfully extracted and their recovery ranged from 76 to 96% with relative standard deviations of less than 13%. The optimum QuEChERS conditions were 2g of fish powder, 10 ml acetonitrile and 1 min shaking time. The optimal conditions were applied to assess the levels of chlorinated pesticides in blunt-tooth catfish (Clarias ngamensis), tigerfish (Hydrocynus vittatus), Oreochromis andersonii and red-breasted tilapia (Tilapia rendalli) from the Okavango Delta, Botswana. Dieldrin, p, p′-DDE and aldrin were detected in all the analysed samples with a concentration range of 0.04 – 0.29, 0.07 – 0.33, 0.04 – 0.28 and 0.03 – 0.24 ng/g per dry weight in O. andersonii, C. ngamensis, T. rendalli and H. vittatus respectively. These concentrations were below the US-EPA 0.1 μg/g allowable limit in edible fish and the Australian Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) of 50 - 1000 ng/g in fresh fish. DDT was not detected in all the fish species investigated. The mean lipid content recorded in the fish samples were 1.24, 2.16, 2.18 and 4.21% for H. vittatus, T. rendalli, O. andersonni and C. ngamensis respectively. No systematic trend was observed between fish age and pesticide levels in fish. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity assays were performed to assess the effects of organochlorine pesticides in Clarias ngamensis. The enzyme activity recorded in Clarias ngamensis from the Okavango Delta and the reference site was 12.31 μmol of acetylcholine iodide hydrolysed/min/g brain tissue. The enzyme activity remained the same indicating no enzyme inhibition. The conclusions drawn from this study are that the QuEChERS method is applicable for the determination of organochlorine pesticide residues in fish matrices. The fish from the Okavango Delta are safe for human consumption.

Abstract:
AbstractMalaria is a persistent health risk for most rural communities in tropical wetlands of developing countries, particularly in the advent of climate change. This chapter assesses household access to water resources, livelihood assets, and vulnerability to malaria in the Okavango Delta of north-western Botswana. Data were obtained from a cross-sectional survey of 355 households, key informant interviews, PRA-based focus group discussions (FDGs), interviews with experts in various related fields, PRA workshop participant interviews, and literature review. There was high access to natural capital, and most households engaged in nature-based livelihood activities. Access to resources determined type of livelihood activities that households engaged in. However, there was no association between household exposure and/or susceptibility, and type of livelihood activities pursued by households. Household vulnerability to malaria was higher in remote and rural locations than in urban neighborhoods. Malaria prevention and vulnerability aversion programs need to be coupled with improvements in housing and well-being in the Okavango Delta and similar wetlands.
