Abstract:
Bibliography: p. 145-152.<br>The primary aim of this ethnobotanical dissertation was to provide a biobehavioural focus for indigenous plant use in the semi-arid areas of one of the six so-called Coloured Rural Reserves (Komaggas, Concordia, Richtersveld, Steinkopf, Leliefontein and Pella) in the north-western Cape (Namaqualand). Although much of the indigenous plant lore has been lost through westernization, the descendants of the Nama-speaking Khoi pastoralists, who are traditionally associated with Namaqualand, still partially rely on indigenous plants for subsistence.

Abstract:
Doctor Educationis<br>This thesis represents the outcome of an interaction between a participating "outsider" and a group of teachers during which a continued dialogue between theory and practice was pursued. The goal was to enhance the quality of teaching practice in a specific situation on the one hand and on the other, gain deeper insight into the theoretical aspects which have a bearing on classroom practice. The research project was initially started in response to teachers' request for help with the teaching of Afrikaans first language to learners whose home language was Afrikaans, but

Abstract:
The Succulent Karoo is recognised as an important biodiversity hotspot and many of the key plant lineages that characterise the biome are thought to have originated during the Pleistocene epoch. However, due to the paucity of palaeobiological proxy data available for the Succulent Karoo, relatively little is known about its environmental history and how an important core of this region, Namaqualand and its subregion the Richtersveld, may have responded to Pleistocene changes. Recent excavations at Spitzkloof Rockshelter A in the Richtersveld have provided a rare source of palaeoenvironmental d

This studu made use of remote sensing technologies in order to investigate possible vegetation cover changes that have taken place over time, and which have manifested through a combination of threats to the region. Te aims of the study were adressed using three key questions that sought to gainan understanding of the relationship between vegetation response and moisture, in order to interpret teporal and spatial vegetyation cover changes.

Abstract:
This research investigates how environmental consultancies frame participation as a tool for project implementation using a cross-border conservation initiative as a case study. The study focuses on the facilitation process led by Eco-Africa Environmental Consultants during the establishment of the /Ai-/Ais Richtersveld Transfrontier Conservation Area. This study analyzes the promise of participation as a crucial component for Transfrontier Conservation Areas. Analyzing participation of the Richtersvelders is necessary for understanding the work that was carried out and how it was experienced

Bibliography: leaves 190-217.<br>The thesis presented here is about traditional semi-nomadic pastoralism and the conservation of biodiversity in a semi-arid South African National Park. The aim was to help improve farmer livelihoods without compromising the unique biodiversity of the area, especially the succulent plants. The thesis sets out to analyse the dynamics of pastoral activities with the Richtersveld National Park (RNP), focussing on the relationship between pastoralism and livelihoods; the impact of grazing on vegetation biodiversity; and a synthesis of these in order to suggest mana

Abstract:
The present investigation examines the relationship between the Proterozoic Richtersveld and Bushmanland Subprovinces in the westernmost part of the Namaqua Province, near Eksteenfontein, Republic of South Africa. There is a controversy about this relationship because isotopic data contrast with field evidence. On a regional scale the Richtersveld Subprovince is separated from the Bushmanland Subprovince by the northward-dipping Groothoek Thrust. North of the thrust the Richtersveld Subprovince is comprised of low grade volcano/ plutonic rocks of the Vioolsdrif Terrane and medium grade volcano
