  • Intensity, energy and erosivity attributes of rainstorms in the KwaZulu-Natal Drakensberg, South Africa 
    Nel, Werner; Sumner, P.D. (Paul) (Academy of Science of South Africa, 2007-09)
    Rainfall intensity, kinetic energy and erosivity were analysed for 106 erosive storm events at five locations in the KwaZulu-Natal Drakensberg, from late 2001 to early in 2006. The stations cover an altitudinal range of ...
  • Intra-event characteristics of extreme erosive rainfall on Mauritius 
    Nel, Werner; Hauptfleisch, Alexia; Sumner, P.D. (Paul); Boojhawon, Ravindra; Rughooputh, Soonil D.D.V.; Dhurmea, Kumar R. (Taylor and Francis, 2016-05)
    Mauritius is a typical tropical volcanic island with a raised interior where extreme rainfall events generate the bulk of the erosivity. Intra-event characteristics of the 120 highest erosive events at six selected ...
  • The nature of erosive rainfall on a tropical volcanic island with an elevated interior 
    Nel, Werner; Mongwa, Themba; Sumner, P.D. (Paul); Anderson, Ryan Leigh; Dhurmea, Kumar R.; Boodhoo, Yadowsun; Boojhawon, Ravindra; Rughooputh, Soonil D.D.V. (Taylor & Francis, 2012)
    Mauritius is a typical tropical volcanic island with a distinct elevated central plateau above 550 m.a.s.l. Rainfall depth, duration, intensity, kinetic energy, and erosivity were analysed for 385 erosive rainfall events ...
  • Spatial distribution of temporal precipitation contrasts in South Africa 
    Botai, Mihloti Christina; Botai, Joel Ongego; Adeola, Abiodun Morakinyo (Academy of Science of South Africa, 2018-07-30)
    The focus of the present study was to investigate the spatial-temporal variability and trends of precipitation concentration across South Africa using the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42 version 7 satellite ...
